Researchers first found them over the winter, and then they reappeared in July along a two-mile stretch between an apartment pond and a wetland area.

Officials fear the newcomer would threaten the survival of native crayfish. The red claw competes with native crayfish for food and other resources and preys on native fish as well as alters the native habitat
quote:

Since Texas researchers found both males and females, they worry about a population explosion. Females can breed almost all year long and can lay up to 1,000 eggs three to five times a year. Redclaws reach maturity and weigh around two pounds within a year. 
TWO POUNDS?

Did I read that right? 2# crawfish? Damn!

I'm guessing this means crawfish prices are going to go up?

Well good thing Texas has a bunch of friendly neighbors, who would gladly get rid of this invasive species.

If they sell them for .50/lb they’ll go from invasive species to extinct in 1 season.

Our native crawfish have been getting a little too comfortable. Soft. Hopefully this will reignite them.
