sea lamprey

Grand Rapids Parks and Recreation is celebrating National Invasive Species Awareness Week. In their effort to highlight invasive species in Grand Rapids, find out what invasive creature is in the Grand River.

The sea lamprey does not belong in the Great Lakes. However, they've been feasting on fish in Lake Michigan for decades.

It's Shark Week and while we can't get out into our own state's waters to see them in all their glory, these creatures are the closest we're going to get!
