January 22, 2009, 3:32am (report abuse)Asian Carp are the most detructive invasive species in the world. They generrally become or replace 90% of native fish quite quickly. Native fish predators are the best control, proven with common carp. In the Mississippi, Flathead Catfish would work the best.

Fish is an indispensible source of micronutrients such as Iron, Iodine, calcium, Zinc, Vitamin A and Vitamin B African countries need. Asian carp may be the solution.

We provide storage and transportation to Africa and 3rd world countries. Lots of starving people in Africa and 3rd world countries will be too happy to eat the fish.
