The signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is a North American species of crayfish. It was introduced to Europe in the 1960s to supplement the North European Astacus astacus fisheries, which were being damaged by crayfish plague , but the imports turned out to be a carrier of that disease.
The Big Sandy crayfish is listed as threatened wherever found under the ESA. [2] It was originally reviewed for listing in 1991 when it was known as C. veteranus. The crayfish was proposed to be listed as endangered with C. veteranus on 7 April 2015, which is when the two new species were distinguished in the ESA (ECOS 12 month finding). [6]
Crayfish usually have limited home range and so they rest, digest, and eliminate their waste, most commonly in the same location each day. Feeding exposes the crayfish to risk of predation, and so feeding behaviour is often rapid and synchronised with feeding processes that reduce such risks — eat, hide, process and eliminate.

In 1990, Louisiana produced 90% of the crawfish in the world and consumed 70% of it locally, [13] but by 2003, Asian farms and fisheries produced more, outpacing American production rapidly. By 2018, P. clarkii crawfish production in the Americas represented just 4% of total global P. clarkii supply. [14]
