This class will focus on the biology and natural history of crayfish, including crayfish conservation. By understanding distribution and potential environmental threats to crayfishes, conservation recommendations and actions ultimately will be more useful and efficient. Several live animals available for people to interact with from West Liberty University's Astacology Collection, which currently houses 1,500 lots of cataloged crayfishes from across West Virginia and the southeastern United States. Instructor: Dr. Zachary Loughman
