It is well recognised that the presence of invasive non-native species can have significant negative impacts on natural species. The local water environment has its fair share of alien species which are a concern to GFT, anglers and conservationists. North American Signal crayfish is one of the nastiest alien species in the UK. Loch Ken and surrounding watercourses mid Kirkcudbrightshire Dee catchment contain a huge population of crayfish which are feared to be impacting on the aquatic biota, especially fish, through predation, competition for habitat food and causing erosion by extensive burrowing into banks. In 2009 GFT managed a Scottish Government funded project researching crayfish in Loch Ken.
