Giant crayfish hide until prey comes near, and then leap out attempting to gain surprise.

These strange creatures are found only in fresh water. They move slowly when walking, but they can swim with great rapidity for short periods.

Aquatic Subtype

Creatures with the aquatic subtype always have swim speeds and thus can move in water without making Swim checks. An aquatic creature can breathe underwater. It cannot also breathe air unless it has the amphibious special quality.
