Observance of Signal Crayfish in an aquarium at Olkiluoto

One effect of the waste heat conducted from the Olkiluoto nuclear power plant into the sea is the farming of signal crayfish, the most economically relevant crayfish species in Finland. Signal Crayfish are solitary animals with a genetic immunity to crayfish plague and a distinctive antagonistic behaviour. The video shows various scenes of crayfish in an aquarium at Olkiluoto.
