“Silent Invaders” episodes on YouTube bring viewers face to face with invasive species

Posted January 14th, 2013 in Aquatic Invasive Species, Video

The folks at Wildlife Forever have teamed up with several partners including the North American Fishing Club to produce a series of television programs about aquatic invasive species that are threatening our waters. 

 Episode three of “Silent Invaders” offers an up-close and informative look at Asian carp, just one of several species that has either taken hold in our waterways or is threatening to spread and cause significant changes to important ecosystems. 

 You can watch the entire episode online here, as well as episodes providing information about Zebra and Quagga mussels and round Gobies.
