New Study from Carleton University Shows Warming Ocean Boosts Invasive Lionfish Appetite
A new study from Carleton University’s Clay Steell and Steven Cooke’s Fish Ecology and Conservation Physiology Lab is the first to show that invasive lionfish eat more and perform better as the ocean warms with climate change, thanks to a digestive system that likes the heat.
