How does a Japanese obtain a crayfish?
Three kinds of crayfishes are in Japan.They are "Japanese Crayfish"(Cambaroides japonicus) ,"Red swamp Crayfish"(Procambarus clarkii) and "Signal Crayfish"(Pacifastacus leniusculus) .But, the place where it lives is limited to two kinds of crayfishes in this.The various kinds of crayfish can't be caught in Japan in the field.So, many Japanese purchase a foreign crayfish in the pet shop.There was no store which sold a foreign crayfish 10 years ago at all.But, they are sold recently in many stores. Then, there is a pet shop which takes out an advertisement in the magazine, too.The pet shop which sets up the corner of the crayfish sale is thought in the big city such as Tokyo and Osaka, too.
We can see many crayfishes in the pet shop.There are many crayfishes raised commercially in Marron, Yabby, Redclaw, and so on.Recently, the crayfish raised in the Southeast Asia is imported abundantly.We can sometimes see the crayfish of the kind that it isn't raised, too.But, they are very expensive.The price of 600 dollars and more had ever been given to 1 crayfish.Many people are expensive from curiosity, and it competes in the rare crayfish, and the beginning is bought.It pays attention to the heart of the maniac who did like this, and there is a dealer who gathers the various kinds of crayfish from each place in the world.But,
the kind which isn't suitable for actual breeding is contained in that, too.We think the phenomenon done so to be disappointed very much.
We think "The taste of crayfish breeding is different from the collection of the rare article."The person of the breeding experience whose it is long doesn't often buy an expensive rare crayfish.JCC is thought to want to work for the enlightenment of the proper knowledge that it faces a crayfish so that Japan may never take the criticism of the "creature's consumption country".JCC cooperates with writing to the general book except for the pet magazine, editing, and so on as well.It is to complain about the knowledge of the crayfish and a charm, the importance of the conservation of nature toward many Japanese.It is the mission of JCC to coexist with the creature and the nature as a group which loves a creature.
