And in Contrast...


The biggest threat to the June Sucker (previous post) is the common carp. The carp are an introduced species that have taken over and completely changed the ecosystem. Over 90% of the biomass in the lake is now carp. I went out with the fisherman in charge of removing them. Insane! Never seen so many fish in my life. I'll post a few more pictures soon.
