Predators in lake ecosystems vary depending on the region but commonly include fish species such as bass, pike, and catfish. Larger aquatic predators may also include birds like herons and eagles, as well as mammals such as otters and raccoons. Additionally, some amphibians and reptiles, like large frogs and turtles, can play predatory roles in lake environments. These predators help maintain the balance of the ecosystem by controlling the populations of smaller fish, invertebrates, and other prey species.

If pesticide from a farm runs off into Lake Michigan which organism in the lakes food chain would test highest for the pesticide?
In Lake Michigan's food chain, the organism that would likely test highest for the pesticide is the top predator, such as a large fish like a lake trout or a northern pike. This phenomenon, known as biomagnification, occurs because these predators accumulate higher concentrations of pesticides through their diet, consuming smaller fish and organisms that have already absorbed the toxins from the environment. As a result, the concentration of pesticides increases at each trophic level, leading to higher readings in top-level predators.
