pbs show on exotics
« on: Jan 23, 2011, 09:27 PM »
anybody catch it tonight? It was about the exotic/invasive species that have inhabited the great lakes (mainly lake huron)from the beginning of the sea lamprey through the more recent round and tube nosed gobies. it was very alarming to see what has happened with the disappearance of salmon and how the fry they are planting is more often just a food supply for larger fish. they were saying that it used to be 60% of the lake trout planters survived to now less than 30%.

What show was it on, and what PBS station I would like to try and find it to watch.

I was under the impression that the salmon was an invasive species that was introduced to the great lakes. and that the lake and brown trout were native's

Lets hope and pray that those are the only species we have to worry about for a while... And not those dang Asian carp...
