6 0

The transport of zebra mussels to the US took place involuntarily through the discharge of ballast water from European ships with contaminated cargo, in the 1980s, spreading across the Great Lakes region.

<h3 /><h3>Impacts on the environment</h3>

This freshwater mollusk can negatively impact the environment by filtering out algae that feed native species and clogging up water transport and storage systems.

Therefore, due to its high reproduction rate, zebra mussels spread rapidly and render water systems unusable, generating significant ecological and economic impacts.
