Asian carp, specifically bighead and silver carp, are non-native fish invading lakes and rivers in the Mississippi River and Great Lakes regions, and negatively impacting native organisms.

One way to help the Asian carp problem is to eat the fish. This factsheet includes several recipes for Asian carp.
