What is known

Found image supplied for The Shadow Zone: a meme built on a naturalist painting of horseshoe crabs on a sandy seabed. One swimming crab asks "Yo Frank, you trying to evolve today?"; the crab on the bottom answers "Lol nah." The lower panel, a close-up of the same crab, reads "Gods Perfect Creation ***The Horseshoe Crab***" and "445 Million Years of non-evolution." The figure is the meme's and is reproduced as found, not as paleontology. Maker, origin, and date are not recorded. The exif scrub reported no location metadata to strip.
