1. Invasive species are already killing the Great Lakes......... |
|
Zebra Mussels,the spiny water flea, the fish-hook flea, the spotted Goby, the Eurasian Ruffe, Milfoil......... geez, the list goes on and on. Ocean going vessels dump their ballast into the Great Lakes before taking on their cargo and it's full of non-native species. The Great Lakes are in serious trouble already and these Carp are trying to invade as well. They installed an "electric dam" to keep them out, but they will get past it, if they haven't already. hen you can kiss the Great Lakes fishery goodbye. It's happening and will continue to happen as long as Republicans continue their "relaxation" of environmental laws. Relaxation meaning, striking them from the books altogether. Bastards! :grr:
