Book Description
The Red Claw is a new and very promosing aquaculture species here in America. This book is one of the few sources for complete information on all aspects of the culture of this lobster-sized freshwater crayfish.Compiled from leading-edge research direct from Australia and Auburne University as well as individual findings all over the U.S. this book dispels the 'hype' and furnishes the facts about this little known but highly prized aquaculture species. Fish farmers have managed to become major players in this bottomless market in only a couple of years, and small scale family run operations are harvesting 'short lobsters' in less than a year. Stock prices have fallen dramatically in 2 years, and as a result the startup costs are greatly reduced now.Included in the book contents are photos from 'Down Under', food and feeding regimens needed to raise the Red Claw to giant size, well managed pond factors, hatching and juvenile production, stocking methods, and some marketing, sale and processing tips.

Management of Freshwater Biodiversity
Author: Julian ReynoldsPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139502166
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 399
Book Description
Integrating research into freshwater biodiversity and the role of keystone species, this fascinating book presents freshwater crayfish as representatives of human-exacerbated threats to biodiversity and conservation. It uses examples from these and other large decapod invertebrates to explore how communities function and are controlled, alongside the implications of human demands and conflicts over limited resources, notably the severe impacts on biodiversity. The discussion is structured around three key topics – the present situation of crayfish in world freshwater ecosystems, the applications of science to conservation management and knowledge transfer for successful crayfish management. It outlines the historic exploitation of crayfish, addressing the problems caused by invasive alien forms and explaining the importance of correct identification when dealing with conservation issues. Offering a global perspective on freshwater systems, the book ultimately highlights how the conservation of such large and long-lived species will help protect ecosystem quality in the future.

Biological Invasions in South Africa
Author: Brian W. van WilgenPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030323943
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 972
Book Description
This open access volume presents a comprehensive account of all aspects of biological invasions in South Africa, where research has been conducted over more than three decades, and where bold initiatives have been implemented in attempts to control invasions and to reduce their ecological, economic and social effects. It covers a broad range of themes, including history, policy development and implementation, the status of invasions of animals and plants in terrestrial, marine and freshwater environments, the development of a robust ecological theory around biological invasions, the effectiveness of management interventions, and scenarios for the future. The South African situation stands out because of the remarkable diversity of the country, and the wide range of problems encountered in its varied ecosystems, which has resulted in a disproportionate investment into both research and management. The South African experience holds many lessons for other parts of the world, and this book should be of immense value to researchers, students, managers, and policy-makers who deal with biological invasions and ecosystem management and conservation in most other regions.
