Wonderful...that is the same species (Bothriocephalus sp.) that has wreaked havoc in the efforts to restore Colorado Squawfish, among other species.

As a parasite geek I think it will be terribly interesting, though horrible, to see the ecological impact this will have on the Great Lakes in the years to come.
