The article also prompted some coversation on Twitter about how likely it is that crayfish can help regulate schistosomiasis.
I think my favourite part of the article is a previously undescribed pattern of behaviour: that they are nocturnal:
Lyko recalls driving to a lake about 15 minutes from his lab with his students. Donning head torches and waders and standing ankle deep in the water, “we waited until it got dark, then suddenly they emerged in their hundreds and thousands”, he says.
