- Aliens are invading Point Pelee National Park... not invaders from space, but plants! In this Field Notes episode, Parks Canada scientists are tasked with removing invasive blue cattail and invasive phragmites that are suffocating the Park’s important marshland.
The marsh at Point Pelee National Park is one of the largest remaining marshes in southern Ontario and one of the few large marshes left in the Great Lakes system. It is also a dthumbnailesignated Ramsar Wetland of International Significance because of its unique features and role in conserving biological diversity.

shoutout to whoever put this video together, it's great!
Thanks so much!! We've passed along your kudos ☺
Very cool thanks.
Glad you liked it!
This can be my dream job
Even better..introduce an invasive species licence partnered with fish and game to make it free or dirt cheap to hunt and fish invasive species year round so long as they hold the license, Identification, etc..If anyones caught with other species not on the list the fines should be mindblowing lol. Things like boar, carp, starling and rusty crayfish for example. Maybe pay x amount of dollars per pound to ppl? 🤔🤷♂️
Common carp have been effectively naturalized at this point. The lack of regulation surrounding them helps to control their numbers.
Agreed on the grass carp, big head, and goldfish but you would inevitably run into identification issues. educating the public, and managing the licensing process is probably less cost effective than just hiring the experts at the end of the day.
Great Job, Parks Canada at Pt Pelle removing invasive species. And good summer jobs for biologists.
Keep it up.

How many woke people live in the marsh?
