its a Trilobite you can check it out here [link] It is releated to the Horse Shoe Crab that is "a 'living fossil': forms almost identical to this species were present during the Triassic period 230 million years ago, and similar species were present in the Devonian, a staggering 400 million years ago. Despite their common name, they are not crabs but are related to arachnids (spiders, scorpions, ticks and mites), and are presumably the closest living relatives of the now extinct trilobites." (From Wiki [link] )

Between Rocky Harbour and MillBrooks in Gros-Morne park, it's a bit hard to give the exact location... :)
