Things that crayfish eat

Crayfish biologists le to say: "Crayfish eat everything and everything eats crayfish"

I have personally observed  crayfish in the wild eating all sorts of food: detritus, decaying wood, algal films, all sorts of aquatic plants, various aquatic insect larvae (mayflies caddisflies, stone flies...),  oligcheate worms, amphipods (side swimers), isopods (aquatic pillbugs), other crayfish (same and different species) , various fish (dead or alive), sheep (dead ;) 

Here are just a few more crayfish prey captured in pictures :
