The Cape River Crab -Potamonautes periatus, is found in abundance in Freshwater rivers, dams and lakes throughout the Western Cape.
We have seen them in Rietvlei and Intaka Island

17 June 2022I found a Cape River Crab in my garden after the rains in Cape Town. Can I leave it in the bird bath or just leave it in the garden
