Researchers have found evidence of naturally reproducing invasive fish species in the Great Lakes, causing an “immediate threat to Canadian waters,” says the Invasive Species Centre (ISC).

Grass carp was found in the Sandusky and Maumee rivers, both tributaries of Lake Erie on the U.S. side, said the ISC in a news release on Thursday.

The threat to our waters is primarily due to the proximity of the lakes, connecting the east-central interior of North America to the Atlantic Ocean. From the interior to the outlet at the Saint Lawrence River, water flows from Superior to Huron and Michigan, southward to Erie, and finally northward to Lake Ontario.
