Round goby numbers in the Great Lakes are measured in the billions, making a total wipeout unrealistic. UTSC researchers are instead looking for ways to limit how the invasive fish spreads inland.
The ecological story is a lesson in practical scale. Conservation often begins after the perfect solution has disappeared, with a smaller intervention that can still protect the next shoreline.
