Kind of cute. Making it out that nobody knows what this thing is. Sure looks like a crayfish to me. Not a mystery at all. Just something awaiting confirmation.
This happened real close to us — during the storm I posted about yesterday.
They mention two lakes as the possible source of this ‘creature’, viz. Locke Lake & Halfmoon Lake. The latter is our lake. I have spent a lot of time on that lake, albeit never diving it per se. I have never seen any crayfish. That is not to say that there couldn’t be any in that lake. It is of fairly decent size.
It is just the ‘mystery animal’ part in the title that tickled me. I first assumed that this was going to be an unknown species of animal. Not just another common or garden variety crayfish.
That is local media for YOU. Smile. They have to get the clicks — by hook or by crook.
