I helped sandbag in the floods of 93 on the Mississippi around Quincy, IL. Thanks to that flood, and the generally terrible idea of farming asian carp near said waters, we now have nasty tape worms in walleye in the great lakes.

On a similar note, a good friend of mine in Seattle Wa has been telling me stories about the "super salmon". Atlantic salmon cross-breeds that get out of farming cages in the pacific and out compete the native salmon, pollute the gene pool, and spread disease because their feed large doses of antibiotics.
