SUMMARY:Protect wild rice by removing rusty crayfish – May 1
DESCRIPTION:On May 1 at noon CT\, you will find a webinar put on by the MAISRC AIS Detectors program. Brennan Pederson and Valerie Brady will be presenting. Register now! \nHere is their overview of the session: Wild rice is an icon of Minnesota and Indigenous history. Besides its cultural significance\, wild rice provides many boons to the surrounding ecosystem. Rusty crayfish have sneakily contributed to the decline of Minnesota’s wild rice since their establishment in the 1990’s. The best way to curb the rusty crayfish’s razing of rice is to trap them near wild rice beds (or near beds of any aquatic vegetation in need of protection). We tested different trap types and baits to find the best way to remove rusty crayfish near wild rice in several lakes in northern Minnesota. We were careful to use methods any Minnesota resident can use to reduce rusty crayfish impact. Our goal is to inspire a wide range of participants to help remove rusty crayfish from their favorite lakes to protect the vegetation and environment they value. \nRegister here.
