Downward Sea Lamprey Trend

Oct 14, 2015

The Great Lakes Fishery Commission reported that abundances of destructive, invasive sea lampreys have been knocked down to a thirty-year low in Lake Huron, a twenty-year low in Lake Michigan, and to below the target level in Lake Ontario. The commission also reported that although sea lampreys are above the target levels in Lakes Erie and Superior, the trends in both lakes follow a steady five-year decline. Sea lampreys are a constant battle in the Great Lakes. For more information visit sea lampreys and control
