AV̳ns can help identify invasive crab species

A new crab species was spotted in AV̳ for the first time last year, and it has the potential to disrupt native species and ecosystems. AV̳ Sea Grant is asking AV̳ns to help monitor the invasive European green crab on local beaches. Citizens who find European green crabs on AV̳ beaches should note the location, take a picture and call the ADFG invasive species hotline at 1-877-INVASIV.
