Endangered Native Crayfish Babies | One of the cutest babies
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- A lot of work has gone into this conservation project and we are excited to announce that we have 6 week old crayfish babies on-site! These babies are adorable as they go about their daily crayfish lives just like an adult would.
Some stunning shots captured of mother crayfish holding onto the craylings before they leave their mum at just one week old.

Report any crayfish sightings, regardless of species, to the Environment Agency Hotline on:
0800 80 70 60 - Ask for the Fisheries, Biodiversity & Geomorphology Team.
Whenever you are using any of our waterways in the UK, remember 3 simple steps to help protect our crayfish:
1. Check:
Check your equipment, boat, and clothing after leaving the water for mud, aquatic animals or plant material. Remove anything you find and leave it at the site.
2. Clean:
Clean everything thoroughly as soon as you can, paying attention to areas that are damp or hard to access. Use hot water if possible.
3. Dry:
Dry everything for as long as you can before using elsewhere as some invasive plants and animals can survive for over two weeks in damp conditions.

Wow! Not only the actual physical work of carrying out amazing this conservation venture, but also the time and effort you must have spent in learning all about the crayfish and preparing for this! All credit to the wonderful team at Northumberland Zoo ❤
Amazing video with very interesting information, it is so great that you participate in this conservation program and help the local species!
Brilliant conservation work, it’s worth all the effort.
Its so amazing watching this amazing project.
Seeing the babies grow is something we otherwise wouldn't see!
Thankyou to everyone involved for all the hard work involved in this amazing project!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Crayfish 1: "Hey! Who ate my skeleton!"
Crayfish 2: "Did you write your name on it?"
Crayfish 1: "I did not think I needed to write my name on it - it was obviously my skeleton."
Yay! Congratulations such a big fan of this project I hope many of the babies make it to adulthood
Absolutely fantastic recording of the babies. Fascinating 👏👏👏
Credit to you all for the work your doing
Brilliant result! Well done team!
Fascinating video. Had no idea they were so involved
Absolutely fascinating! This is some incredible work you all are doing!
They really are cute! Great to see such an underrated species in the spotlight. Good job Northumberland Zoo 💪
Amazing work by everyone involved. Well done!
Amazing work! Great video
Wow, it actually seems to be a really complicated and stressful process for you all. And I didn’t think you’d have to worry about Mummy eating the bairns!! 😮
Great work, best of luck with the babies. They’re cute little wigglers!! 🤗
Thanks so much! It is quite complex.. trying to explain it is difficult! 😅 but it is hugely rewarding 🙏🏻
7:24 Do you think feeding them Sea Monkeys might trigger some people?
Are you making the new babys resistent to the sickness or is this not possible?
Unfortunately, that’s not possible. All we can do is reintroduce them to an ark site that is free from signal crayfish and the plague.
@@NorthumberlandZoo super sad! Very nice that your zoo is doing a great part in keeping them intact.
