Crayfish
Alternative names: Crawfish, Crawdads, Freshwater lobsters, Mountain lobsters, mudbug, yabbies
The Crayfish is a freshwater crustacean similar to a lobster that can be found in lakes and streams, usually under rocks.
The female crayfish has an opening located between her last two pairs of legs and can be easily recognized by the eggs on her tail. The male on the other hand has longer swimmerets than the female and is usually competitive during the mating season by fighting over a territory.
