おもしろい事実

Crayfish can taste things with tiny sensors found on their legs and antennae!

Crayfish often dig complex burrows that can be several feet deep to stay safe.

Some crayfish species are nocturnal, meaning they are most active searching for food at night.

They breathe using feathery gills, just like fish do, to get oxygen from the water!

特殊能力

Procambarus sheds its hard outer shell (exoskeleton) to grow bigger, leaving a soft new one underneath.

能力

Underwater Burrowing

Procambarus can dig intricate tunnels in mud because their strong claws and legs are adapted for excavation.
