The Wonder Of Crayfish
Have you ever seen a small creature that looks like a mini lobster? That is probably a crayfish and they are small creatures. They live in many places. They have small pincers and are an interesting animal in many ways.
Crayfish mostly live in Europe and New Zealand but throughout the world. They do not survive in saltwater. They live in fresh water like lakes, rivers, streams, and ponds. They are common under rocks and in dark places.
Some times they look like mini lobsters. The crayfish is normally a shade of red, gray and black. Crayfish are usually about 5 inches to 6 inches.
Have you ever wondered if a crayfish is related to a crab? Well it is and they are animal cousins.
I hope you learned something about crayfish. Also check out http://mackers.com/crayfish/ and animal.discovery.com/marine-life/crayfish-info.htm for more information.

Dear Ryan
We both have fished for cray fish well one of us that is. We did not know that cray fish were related to crabs. Is a cray fish your faverite animal? What do they like as food? Does it have any predetors is a fish a predatore? Have you ever tryed to catch a cray fish? Are they related to lobsters as well? We really enjoyed your post and can not wait for you to answer all our questions.
