I vacation in WI, and I have seen the problems with zebra mussels. I can't imagine trying to waterski with carp flying around me. This would devastate the Great lakes region in general in terms of ecology, recreation, and the businesses that rely on tourism.

I know they're already on the east side of the state and infesting our watersheds. They've become a big problem and are costing loads of money to keep out of Lake Erie's wetlands. If they reach the wetlands they'll destroy most the breeding grounds for native species. -Biologist/Limnologist
