OH Carp!
Episode description
In today’s episode, we explore the “asian carp”, focusing on Hypopthalmichthys sp., and its invasion of rivers in the Midwestern United States. Join us chatting about the ecology, problems, and potentially solutions, no matter how crazy they may seem, surrounding this introduced fish.
The Anthropo Scene is an independent project by young ecologists hoping to educate and share interesting information about invasive species around the world.
