We're excited to share our latest StoryMap! Invasive Blue Catfish: From Problem to Plate (https://arcg.is/19zvjP1) , shows the spread and impact of the invasive blue catfish in our local waterways. Blue Catfish is a non-native species causing serious disruptions to our waterways, outcompeting native species and altering the delicate balance of our aquatic environments. This StoryMap illustrates the threats to native species and the ecosystem, while also showcasing how seafood processors are helping to restore balance in our waters. Seafood processors are stepping up by turning this challenge into an opportunity, harvesting these catfish to protect our waters and provide a sustainable seafood option. Learn what you can do to support these efforts—from participating in local removal initiatives, choosing sustainable seafood and spreading the word by exploring our StoryMap, Invasive Blue Catfish: From Problem to Plate.
