[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 263050, member: 1485"] I know for a fact freshwater shrimp hitch rides on birds because I had a Geo prizm trunk to prove it. Went out on an early goose hunt back in my younger days and whacked a limit in a field. Put the geese in the trunk with some gear (the rest went in the back seat) and drove an hour back home. By the time I got everything unpacked and was ready to clean, I found out my trunk was LOADED with freshwater shrimp. They must have hitched a ride on the geese and were still firmly imbedded when they went to the field to feed. It was only after my trunk got a bit warm and the shrimp started to die that they fell out (fun fact: those shrimp turn bring pinkish orange when they heat up, just like the cooked shrimp you get from Red Lobster). SO it is 100 percent feasible that geese loafing in a body of water could transport shrimp, bugs, bits of pond weeds, etc. and they could survive a flight to another body of water. [/QUOTE]
