The boat had been out of water just four days, but these resilient pests can survive up to 30 days without water, posing a serious threat to Montana’s pristine waters. The driver was completely unaware of the infestation, underscoring how easily invasive species can hitch a ride. Officials stress this could have permanently damaged local ecosystems and cost millions to clean up. Thanks to vigilant wardens, the boat was decontaminated and secured to its trailer. This incident reinforces Montana’s mandatory boat inspection policy—critical for protecting our lakes and rivers.
