      <description><![CDATA[Procambarus clarkii (red swamp crawfish) and P. zonangulus (white river crawfish) have similar ecological requirements associated with natural cycles of flooding and drying.  Both construct burrows in which they survive and reproduce during temporary dry periods.  The highest densities and most complex population structures usually occur where crawfish have been grown in the same location for several consecutive seasons.

      <description><![CDATA[Limited food resources near the end of the crawfish production season resulted in lower reproduction. Moreover, short-term feeding with high protein/high energy feeds in forage depleted ponds before crawfish burrowing seemed to mitigate the food shortages and even increased the spawning rate over those crawfish from ponds rich in forage. - Full Content set to .]]></description>
