Crayfish Craze! Session 1

  • Tower Grove Park - Lily Pond Shelter 2176 Tower Grove Avenue St. Louis, MO, 63110 United States (map)

Session 1 of 2 - registration is NOT required for both sessions.

Did someone say invasive!? Uh-oh, that's not good. Tower Grove Park has a crazy problem - a crayfish problem!

Let's use this opportunity to learn about native and invasive crayfish to Missouri and practice trapping for science, while we help staff manage the garden.

Session 1 covers native vs. invasive crayfish and trap setting. Session 2 covers trap recovery and some citizen science. Both are hands-on experiences!

All registrants for this event must be a minimum age of 9 years old by 7/12/2024.

This program is offered by the Missouri Department of Conservation.
