Description

The wild form of Cambarellus patzcuarensis is mainly naturally found in a lake called Pátzcuaro. I’m sure no one saw that one coming! Located in the state of Michoacán, this is a closed-off, high-altitude lake of volcanic origin. It’s shallow (max. 39ft) and relatively warm.

Surrounded by wetlands, Lake Pátzcuaro is an important spot for local wildlife, including birds, various reptiles and fish, and of course the Mexican dwarf crayfish. Unfortunately, its water quality is currently considered pretty abysmal due to cattle ranching, raw sewage dumping and other threats.

Cambarellus patzcuarensis 的野生形态主要天然存在于一个名为 Pátzcuaro 的湖中。我确信没有人看到那个人的到来！这是一个封闭的高海拔火山湖，位于米却肯州。它很浅（最大 39 英尺）并且相对温暖。

帕茨夸罗湖周围环绕着湿地，是当地野生动物的重要栖息地，包括鸟类、各种爬行动物和鱼类，当然还有墨西哥小龙虾。不幸的是，由于养牛场、原污水倾倒和其他威胁，目前其水质非常糟糕。
