Crayfish primarily use their pincers, or claws, as their main self-defense mechanism. When threatened, they can quickly raise their claws to deter predators or deliver a painful pinch if necessary. Additionally, they have the ability to escape by swiftly swimming backward using their tail, allowing them to evade danger. Their hard exoskeleton also provides some protection against attacks.
