Description
This is an interactive piece, so I've tried to convey that by showing each folding part above.. unfortunately, the effect is lost without video. Anyway. The Midwest Fish series! Lake Trout were the pride of the Great Lakes until the invasion of the sea lampreys. The toothy, eel-like lamprey fish were stowaways in the ships that came through the St Lawrence Seaway and released their ballast into the lakes before picking up cargo. The trout population plummeted and they almost went extinct before the lampreys were reined in. Today, the trout don't naturally breed in Lake Michigan; instead, they're bred in captivity and then "planted" for fishing. They still have a hold in Lake Superior, though, due to it being colder than the other lakes and also deep as hell.Related content
