Speaking of introduced exotics, the dreaded Asian silver carp that's threatening the Great Lakes was introduced to control algae in aquaculture and wastewater treatment and is feared to compound the invasive effect of zebra and quagga mussels due to the excessive algae the mussels grow from their excreta.
But apparently the meat of silver carp is tasty. If and when, and it's really a matter of when it reaches the lake, we better learn to eat it.
