This is fucking sickening. US Fish & Wildlife has revitalized trout levels in Lake Superior to normal levels as of November 2024. This will be so bad for the environment, the livelihood of Native Americans and locals who rely on commercial fishing, Great Lakes economy, tourism, Canada. #SeaLamprey
Sweeping layoffs of federal employees have struck the program responsible for controlling the invasive sea lamprey that threatens fish across the Great Lakes, the earth’s largest freshwater ecosystem.

Cuts to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service could unintentionally thwart efforts to control populations of the destructive sea lamprey.

Hey Huizenga,
What are you doing to protect the Great Lakes?
After decades of effort, sea lamprey were getting under control. DOGE wreckeless budget cuts threaten all progress.

It is tough to do sea lamprey control in the US waters of the Great Lakes when front line control agents are fired. Just one of the consequences associated with random terminations of environmental professionals in the US.
