Folks in Michigan are seeing something much-prized here, but unwanted there: Louisiana crawfish, according to clickondetroit.com.

Two landowners spotted live "red swamp crayfish," according to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.

The report states: "Red swamp crayfish, also known as Louisiana crayfish, are deep red in color with bright red, raised spots covering the body and claws. They have a black, wedge-shaped stripe on the top of the abdomen. Between 2 and 5 inches in length, these crayfish resemble miniature lobsters.

"They are native to the Mississippi River drainage and the Gulf Coast and are the popular "crawfish" or "crawdads" used in southern cooking."

This is the 'first live detections of red swamp crayfish in Michigan," but, in 2015, a pile of dead red swamp crayfish were found in a park there.

The concern is that these invasive crawfish will compete with native species for food and habitat and might disrupt the food chain for other creatures.

Residents are asked to notify the Michigan DNR, if they spot the creatures.

Ever tasted a Michigan crayfish or crawdad? From this video, it looks like they live in some nice pretty water. And, that folks in Michigan like them, too.

If they can't get rid of them, maybe they can learn to love them.
