What do gold fish, Prussian carp, pale yellow iris and flowering rush have in common? These are invasive aquatic species and have been identified in the Medicine Hat area. Want to know more about how to prevent and control these invasives? They have the potential to seriously harm our native fishery, wildlife habitat, and reduce water quality. You are invited to learn more about aquatic invasive species, and how to prevent and control them. Nicole Kimmel, Alberta Environment’s Aquatic Invasive Species Specialist will be at Saturday’s Invasive Species workshop, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m, at the Nature Centre at Police Point Park. Those planning to attend are asked to register on eventbrite.ca. Lunch and door prizes will be available. For more information, call the Nature Line at 403-529-6225.
