The High Stakes of the Great Lakes - Asian Carp are Invasive Species
Carp, a family of fresh-water fishes native to Southwestern Asia, but now acclimated in all parts of the world. Carp is a favorite food fish of Europe, but because of the coarseness of its flesh it is not so well liked in the United States. It thrives and multiplies rapidly in ponds and sluggish streams, and the United States Fish Commission has stocked many such bodies of water with it. The leather carps have no scales. Other species are brilliantly colored, while still others are dull.
