      Thank you dior!! 🙂 You’ve asked some great questions. I’m really nervous and excited about today, thanks so much for your vote! There are about 600 species of crayfish… some are tiny (like the swamp crayfish), others are enormous (like the Tasmanian giant crayfish!). I made a quiz here if you’d like to find out which species you would be: http://zaragladman.com/Whichcray.html

      Also, in case you haven’t seen it… I’ve been asking some of the scientists in my department questions from “I’m a scientist…”. Here’s what they came up with: http://zaragladman.com/IAS.wmv (if that link doesn’t work, try: http://www.tinyurl.com/whatdoweknow)
