Summary:
As far as anyone can tell, the cold-water
crayfish Faxonius eupunctus makes its
home in a 30-mile stretch of the Eleven Point River and nowhere else in the
world. Because the animal is being considered for endangered species status,
researchers are comparing old and new techniques to get a thorough accounting
of its population and distribution.
