Lake Ontario Overrun With Goldfish

Biologists estimate that there is somewhere between 40 to 50 million goldfish that have made Lake Ontario their home. Goldfish have become a problem across many lakes and waterways in Canada and are having a significant impact on native wild life. Being a Great Lake, officials can do little to control the Lake Ontario goldfish population except ask citizens to stop dumping their pet fish in the wild. MoreĀ

  4. Maybe birth control and personal responsibility ought to be encouraged.

    Btw…what is forced birth? Does come from forced sex? Or should sex be free and easy and abortion is just the reset button.

    You don’t want pregnancy? Birth control or abstinense is the answer.

    Contrary to what you seem to think….you dont magically get pregnant

  7. Just declare year ’round, open season, no limit, bounty by the pound.
    And put out some PSAs showing how nutritious these goldfish/carp/koi are, with easy preparation and recipes.

  8. Aren’t there all kinds of invasive species — like snails and mussels — that have got a foothold in the Great Lakes, from being pumped out of foreign vessels ballast?
