Familiar Friday - Sea Lamprey
MORE LAMPREYS.
More specifically, the Sea Lamprey with it’s striking brown and yellow pattern.
Although Sea Lampreys are vital to ecosystems they are native to, in the Great Lakes they are an invasive species that is slowly killing populations of native trout and chubs. Truly terrifying- someone out to communicate to the Lamprey what they’re doing and that the fish they’re feeding from on vacation don’t have the resilience as the ones back in the salty sea.
