Kemp, Karen

Abstract:

Kemp examines how non-indigenous species are endangering the natives in North Carolina and beyond. For example, flathead catfish eat native fishes or their food, hydrilla plants overtake lakes, and kudzu covers every bare spot in sight. She describes characteristics of the invaders and presents seven things individuals can do to help control them.
