Run Mr Flecker's, run!

for the Flecker's Crayfish

Endangered

By Zenji, age 11

I chose to paint the Flecker’s Crayfish because we hear about all the mammals and birds that are affected by extreme weather events like bushfires but we don’t really hear about the impact on crayfish. I used watercolours because Crayfish live in the water so I thought that could be a cool link. I really like the colours of the Fleckers Crayfish too.
