    <![CDATA[This photo from 1949 shows invasive common carp being removed from Lake Mattamuskeet with nets as part of a historic ecosystem restoration project. The removal, in conjunction with predator stocking and blocking carp re-entry to the lake, was very successful. Native submerged aquatic vegetation thrived in the lake for more than 60 years until it began declining once more in the 1990s. Courtesy USFWS]]>

    <![CDATA[On Wednesday, Nov. 15, 2023, the first of two houses purchased by the National Park Service is almost ready to fall. With one excavator pulling and another pushing, the house sat on the beach. Immediately, the large excavator with a hydraulic thumb clawed the south facing wall to begin the process of breaking the structure into movable pieces. The second house was destroyed on Thursday. By Friday morning, only some debris remained at the site of the two structures. Mary Helen Goodloe-Murphy photo]]>
