Carp Invaders May Reach Lake Erie From Mississippi Watershed
The common carp already inhabits the Great Lakes and four Asian species could reach Lake Erie within five years.

ODNR and the Ohio Lake Erie Commission fear ecological and economic damage and explore barriers, while noting rapid reproduction and difficult removal. Brad Dicken, chronicletelegram.com, 329-7147.
