Kepiting Tapal Kuda termasuk jenis biota perairan yang dilindungi di Indonesia berdasarkan Keputusan Menteri Kehutanan No.12 / Kpts-II/1987 dan Peraturan Pemerintah No.7/1999. Kepiting Tapal Kuda dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat sekitar sebagai sumber makanan, pengobatan tradisional, dan ornamen (Rubiyanto, 2012; Meilana, 2015). Menurut penelitian Meilana (2020) terjadi penurunan poulasi Kepiting Tapal Kuda di Jawa, Sumatera, Kalimantan, dan Sulawesi akibat kebiasaan penduduk lokal memakan Kepiting Tapal Kuda dewasa yang menunjukkan bahwa adanya kebutuhan mendesak strategi manajemen yang baik dan efektif dalam konservasi Kepiting Tapal Kuda.
