Carp Advance | Great Lakes Now

Since their introduction years ago, invasive have infested rivers and lakes around the U.S. But they’ve been kept out of the Great Lakes — so far. Some steps have been taken to protect the lakes system, but many believe that more effective policies — and more substantial barriers — are needed to keep the fish from spreading and to reduce the numbers where they’re already established. This segment was produced in partnership with the National Wildlife Federation.
