America's Most Hated Fish Is Vanishing From Illinois Rivers — The Real Predator Was Unexpected
America's Most Hated Fish Is Vanishing From Illinois Rivers — The Real Predator Was Unexpected For decades, the Asian carp seemed unstoppable. They escaped Southern fish farms in the 1970s, flooded into the Mississippi, and climbed the Illinois River until they made up as much as 70 percent of the fish in some stretches, even launching out of the water and injuring boaters along the way. Illinois threw electricity, poison, and over a billion dollars at the problem, and none of it worked. Then, near Starved Rock, the carp started disappearing on their own. In this video you'll learn why the giant predator everyone bet on never stood a chance, and how two forces almost nobody expected, paid fishing crews and Chicago's own polluted water, quietly did what no barrier could. It's a story about how the boring truth often beats the good legend. #AsianCarp #InvasiveSpecies #IllinoisRiver #GreatLakes #Wildlife #NatureDocumentary
