[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 263049, member: 704"] I don't think many species hitch rides on birds. Some do. I think what people are calling fresh water shrimp are Amphiods. We have two species Gammarus lacustris and Hyalella aztecs. Both have the unusual behavior of attaching themselves to other animals. A fellow biologist shot a duck one day far from any wetland. There was a handfull of Hyalella where the duck hit the ground, and many between its feathers. I have come out of wetlands with a dozen Amohipods surrounding each snap on my wetsuit. Very few species transport in this manner, but I do wonder about the zebra mussel. We fail miserably controlling invasive. It's much like the problem with CWD. Wild elk with CWD don't hitch rides in stock trailers, but farmed cervids do. [/QUOTE]
