Killer Shrimp

posted 6 Feb 2012 02:25 by ODSSA Warden

On 3 September 2010, a species of shrimp never before found in the UK was discovered at Graftham Water, a reservoir in Cambridgeshire run by Anglian Water.

The shrimp, known as 'dikerogammarus villosus' is more commonly known as the 'killer shrimp', due to its voracious appetite. 

The shrimp can grow to 3cm in length, much larger than our native species. It kills a range of native species, such as young shrimps, fish, and other insects - as a result, it can alter the ecology of the habitats that it enters, sometimes causing the extinction of native species.

The Environment Agency is determining the extent of the problem in the UK, but in the meantime it is important that we take practical action now to avoid the spread of this species.
