Cambarus bartonii
I believe this is a "Common" crayfish, but I'm not 100% sure. It had a dark brown colour and It was about 3 inches long.
It was found underneath a large rock in Guelph's Speed River, at a fairly slow moving shallow area.
It wasn't moving at all, but I believe it was still alive. Perhaps in some form of hibernation since it was early spring.

You are welcome!
Thank you kindly =) I wasn't too sure how that other category worked.
Hello. This is an arthropod. I have moved it for you from "other", which means "other organisms", not unknown species. :-)
