Talk to sportsmen about invasive species and it’s certain you’ll get a variety of opinions. Anglers are annoyed by spiny water fleas clogging up their fishing line, but some don’t mind the fact that round gobies are helping to fatten up smallmouth bass in waterbodies connected to the Great Lakes.

The Park Falls DNR fish management team ran fyke netting and electro-fishing surveys in fall 2011 and spring 2012 to assess the abundance and size structure of fish populations in Cranberry Lake.
They set fyke nets for four nights in October 2011, then set more fyke nets in early April 2012, followed by electrofishing runs in May 2012, sampling 4 miles of shoreline. That survey work revealed that Cranberry’s fish community was comprised of at least 11 species, and has changed substantially over two decades.

The greater prairie chicken (GPC) is a native species to Wisconsin. There are fewer than 500 prairie chickens remaining in Wisconsin, with two-thirds of them concentrated on the a 12,700-acre Buena Vista Marsh in southwestern Portage County. There is a 6,737-acre solar project (Vista Sands Solar) before the Public Service Commission (PSC) that would be located in and adjacent to the Buena Vista Marsh.
This project is in addition to a 2,167-acre solar project approved by the PSC in April 2023. This combined project will be four times larger than any other solar project in Wisconsin and will be the largest solar project in the U.S. (per Certrec), if approved.
Our 94 years of scientific research on this species tell us we will lose the GPC in Wisconsin if this project is approved as submitted.
