Bug-Eyed Crawmad
Camabarus subterranid
Crawmad family
Like its close cousin the Hermit Crawmad, it makes its home in a burrow rather than a shell. It has abnormally overdeveloped eyes with which to detect prey in cloudy water or low-visibility mud. These enormous eyes can perceive circular polarised light, as well as the ultraviolet and infrared ends of the spectrum. It's well protected from predators, allowing it to live for upwards of 50 years and grow to immense size by repeated ecdysis.
