Crayfish
Crayfish (also called crawfish or crawdads) are freshwater crustaceans that look like a small lobster. Crayfish feed on plants, frog eggs, insects, and small fish. Crawfish boils and dishes with crayfish in them are very common in Louisiana. Louisiana supplies about 95% of the crayfish harvested in the US.

Will crawfish make a dog sick?
Crawfish can make a dog sick - the crawfish can carry E. coli, Salmonella and several parasites that can infect or infest your dog. I have heard of one dog that had a very difficult to treat intestinal worm problem, but the parents couldn't figure out where the dog got the worms from. The parents eventually figured out that their two boys were having crawfish races in the back yard and were feeding the losers of each race to the dog.
What is the cinus in the thorax of a crayfish?
What you are referring to is the sinus. The crayfish's gills are used to extract oxygen that is dissolved in water and lead it into the crayfish's open circulatory system. This type of circulatory system doesn't limit the blood to blood vessels; instead the blood collects in the pericardial sinus, the cavity surrounding the dorsal heart. (Porch and Batdorf 477) From there the dorsal heart pumps the blood through short vessels, which empty into internal cavities and bathe the organs. After the blood bathes the organs and drains from these cavities, it flows into the large sternal sinus. The blood then passes through the gills, becomes oxygenated, and returns to the pericardial. The green glands, located near the base of the antennae, filter out waste as the blood circulates. Then the waste is excreted through a pore just in front of the Crayfish's mouth.
