Attention please! We have some jobs that suck. (invasive sea lamprey joke)

Our Sea Lamprey Control Program is pleased to announce multiple vacancies for GS-404 Biological Science Aid and Technician positions in LUDINGTON, MI and MARQUETTE, MI. The vacancy announcements are open December 1 through December 8 and are found here:

GS-3: https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/851241800

GS-4: https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/851242400

GS-5: https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/851242700

The primary focus of these positions is to control invasive sea lamprey populations using various methods. While the sea lamprey is native to the Atlantic Ocean, it is highly invasive to the Great Lakes. The invasive sea lampreys are a jawless, parasitic fish that entered the Great Lakes system via manmade locks and shipping canals. Their aggressive behavior and appetite for the bodily fluids of fish wreaked havoc on native fish populations and decimated an already vulnerable lake trout fishery. Come join the Sea Lamprey Control Program Team! Only the lamprey suck... the job is great.
