Efforts to eradicate the Signal Crayfish

In the park, surveys and measures to eradicate the Signal Crayfish--which was designated as a Specific Invasive Species in 2006--are being carried out. These include surveys of habitat distribution and removal of crayfish by divers with crab baskets. Measures are also being carried out to remove Golden Glow, in addition to clean-up activities, maintenance of mountain trails, and other activities.
