The Bighead carp, a species native to East Asia, likely entered Lake Michigan through the Mississippi River system, where they escaped from fish farms or were released by anglers. They migrated northward through waterways, exploiting connections to the Great Lakes. Their presence has raised concerns due to their potential impact on local ecosystems and fisheries. Efforts continue to prevent their further spread and protect native species.
