I fought the claw, and the claw won



The Chinese Mitten Crab Vs the plague-carrying non-native crayfish
Following yesterday's news concerning Crayfish and Mitten Crabs, I sustain my belief that the Chinese mitten Crab – by far the more evil of the two – will win any fight, claws-down.

"He fought the claw, and the claw one," says Ry Ter.

I am the claw


Two of the UK's worst aquatic invasive species are set to meet.

Scientists say the non-native crayfish and the fierce Chinese mitten crab's habitats are beginning to overlap.

"My money's on the Chinese Mitten Crab," says Ry Ter. "It's my understanding that it's a dogfish eat dogfish world under the surface of the UK waterways. And in that world, they are the claw."
