Invasive Ludwigia on the Rogue River
The spread of invasive species, both plant and animal, presents a threat to the ecosystem health of our local streams and watersheds. Stream Smart works with partnerships like the Rogue Aquatic Invasives Network (RAIN) and the Jackson + Josephine Counties Cooperative Weed Management Area (JaJo CWMA) to curb the spread of invasives and species of concern across the Rogue Basin. The resources below can help you learn how to prevent invasives’ spread, how to spot them where you live and recreate, and how you should treat or report any invasive species you identify.
