Understanding Red Swamp Crayfish Spread in Southeastern Michigan
September 12 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
FreeInvasive red swamp crayfish are found in small ponds and drainages in southeastern Michigan, in areas with a high potential for spread to nearby bodies of water. Dr. Jared Homola of the USGS Wisconsin Cooperative Fishery Research Unit will discuss a project in collaboration with Michigan State University and the Michigan DNR using cutting-edge genetic tools to identify the biological and environmental factors that could lead to the crayfish’s spread. Understanding these factors is helping inform development of strategies to assess the risks posed by red swamp crayfish and ultimately control or eradicate them in Michigan.
