Way to go Girl, Shrimp first and the other half next. My Wife understands and is a fish keeper to so she looks after every thing when I am away.

I am lucky enough not to get shrimp sick when I am away because I am usually in creeks looking for shrimp and other aquatic creatures

It's a shame there aren't any shrimp where I work, otherwise I could tell everyone I'm going out mapping/prospecting/field reconnaissance when in fact I could go shrimping!

[northboy]

Where do you work? there might be Crabs

Between mount Isa and camooweal. But we're in serious drought, no water round here! All the biggest waterholes are just puddles :(

I know we get some types of yabbies/crayfish as I saw a big dried up one, but the river is completely gone!

[northboy]

Keep an eye out when it rains again, there will be Crabs and Crayfish and maybe even Shrimp everywhere.

Shrimp I hear you ask? Yep some Shrimp in some places will shelter under ground with Crabs and Crays and come up when there is water or migrate very quick to where you are.

North of you there is some good stuff, up towards the Gulf and around Lawn Hill

Well hopefully it rains soon as all the animals are dying :(

Our tenure stretches pretty far north, i'll have to see how close we get to Lawn Hill when im next back!

[northboy]

Lawn Hill out side the NP has some wonderful stuff and the Snails there WOW, There is some really good shrimp from there, I have seen the dead specimens but not live yet, may be this year I will get out there.

There is a Freshwater Crab there that is big enough to eat.

You won't get any rain till summer, will you?

[torface]

No probably not. We have had a few showers this winter but not enough to fill the creeks.

What animals are dying?
