Faced with the threat that Asian carp could enter the Great Lakes, Michigan is turning to the public for new ideas. Michigan’s global search comes after the U.S. government and others have spent millions searching for a solution to stop the carp from entering the largest freshwater system. If they aren’t stopped, officials fear the aggressive fish will crowd out native fish and hamper recreational boating. Asian carp have been spotted 45 miles from Lake Michigan. If the fish make it into that lake, they could make their way into the other Great Lakes. Since 2010, more than $388 million has been spent to battle the invasive species - mostly by the federal government. Many researchers have developed ideas to halt their advance. Some have shown promise in lab trials but are still in experimental phases; others have failed. http://cbsn.ws/2maZtfy http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
