EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Fabio Pupin, we witness the fascinating defensive behavior of an American Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) in the beautiful waters of Italy. This introduced species from North America has adapted quite well to its new European home and is not afraid to show off its impressive claws! With its claws raised high in a posture that screams "back off" this Italian crayfish puts on a display that would make any alien creature proud. Its bright red exoskeleton glistens under the summer sun as it confidently showcases its crustacean prowess. As an invasive species, this crayfish has made itself at home in Southern Europe's freshwater habitats, much to the surprise of native wildlife. But hey, who can blame them for wanting to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle? So next time you're exploring Italy's aquatic wonders, keep an eye out for these clawed invaders! They may be aliens to these parts but they sure know how to raise their defenses and put on a show. Just remember to admire them from a safe distance – those claws mean business!
