An invasive species is causing damage in Metro Detroit. Now, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources is working to solve the problem.

IMPORTANT: If you come across this crawfish, that is red in color, DNR is urging you not to eat it, keep it, or move it. They need your help to track this species. If you find one, please capture it, freeze it and call your local DNR office to report it.


First things first. Stop trying to remove them one by one using your hands.

While the crawfish could have a major impact on the aquatic ecosystems up there, that whole "if you see one, capture it, freeze it, and report it" but just makes me laugh everytime I read it.

Right. Invasive species are no joke, but the way that reads you'd swear the place was crawling with cobras.
