Commentary

Dear David Rosenblatt,

Thank you for reporting Chinese Mystery Snail to the hotline. This is valuable information, and I believe it is a new record for this area. I will share this report with Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife as well as the local land managers so they can be aware of the problem and take appropriate action.

Thanks so much! Please keep reporting invasive species!
