The Keweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Forum for January will discuss lampreys and invasive species control.
You’ve probably heard about the damage caused by invasive species in Michigan, but may be wondering what exactly is being done to address these issues. From Zebra Mussels clogging the waterways, plants like milfoil and elodea, to Sea Lamprey harming our important local fish species, we’re facing some steep challenges in the Great Lakes. Thankfully through the active efforts of organizations like the US Fish and Wildlife Lamprey Control, we’ve seen a marked shift in the presence of these harmful invasives.
Join USFWS Biologist Nik Rewald and KUUF Member Will Ligon for a morning discussion on the current status of Sea Lamprey in our waterways! Topics of interest include the life cycle and biology of Lamprey, background on the history of their presence in the area, and the current methods of controlling their population, with a Q&A to follow.
The forum is on Zoom only.
