Crayfish!

Duchesne's 3rd grade classes came out to the site recently to investigate Who Eats What. Janice Weil's group found a frozen female crayfish with eggs along the edge of Deer Creek. She was in pristine condition, and the discovery gave the kids the opportunity to learn about the life cycle and physiology of crayfish. The students also had fun using the microscopes to observe insects and other discoveries they made while investigating rotting logs.
