FRANCE: Zebra mussels have been found in the Red River just south of the Manitoba border.
A significant amount of zebra mussel larvae (or veligers) were picked up in June surveys of the river from the southeast to northeast parts of North Dakota, an official with the North Dakota Game and Fish Department said in a release.
Zebra mussels were first found in Manitoba in 2013. This spring, they were found on a private dock in Selkirk Park and zebra mussel larvae were found in the Red River near Emerson. The province said that’s the first time the larvae have been found in that part of the river, which is just above the North Dakota border.
