I didn't know that there were crayfish in the Glenmore Reservoir.

The crayfish in the Glenmore Reservoir, as they can be introduced to various water bodies through human activities or migration from nearby natural habitats. Crayfish are freshwater crustaceans that are native to North America and Europe and have been introduced to many other parts of the world. In Alberta, they are often found in lakes, rivers, and streams with adequate water quality and suitable habitats.

Crayfish are omnivorous, which means they eat both plants and animals, and can impact local ecosystems by consuming native species and altering the environment. It's important for anglers and recreational users of the water to be aware of their presence to prevent further spread through the bait bucket trade or releasing them into non-native waters.
