The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is native to East Asia, specifically China, Russia, and Korea. It was introduced to the United States in the late 20th century, likely through the aquarium trade or as a bait fish. Since then, it has spread to various freshwater habitats, particularly in the northeastern U.S., where it poses ecological risks. Its ability to survive in diverse environments and reproduce rapidly has raised concerns about its impact on native species.
