An infestation of zebra mussels has been discovered in a tunnel leading away from Walthamshow Reservoirs in London, clogging up the waterway.

Thames Water posted a photo of the blockage they found on Thursday during a routine inspection, asking: ‘Do you know what it is?’

Native to Ukraine, the zebra mussel is an invasive species that can cause serious problems.

>native to ukraine

Are russians really that desperate to make ukraine look bad?

Zebra mussels are native to ALL of E. europe. In fact, I think russia has the largest contiguous population of them in the world.

Holy fucking shit russians are stupid.

From http://cisr.ucr.edu/quagga_zebra_mussels.html, emphasis mine:
>Quagga and zebra mussels are aquatic invasive species that are native to EASTERN EUROPE. The quagga mussel originated from DNIEPER RIVER drainage of UKRAINE. The zebra mussel was first described from the lakes of SOUTHEAST RUSSIA and its natural distribution also includes the Black and Caspian Seas.

They are also described as being from the Volga and Ural rivers, both of which have nothing to do with Ukraine. Therefore, >>124387 is not wrong, these things were originally from across eastern Europe.

Also, these things are old news, they've been spreading to Britain since the early 19th century, a time at which Ukraine was controlled by THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE. So it is positively ridiculous to use this as a anti-Ukrainian propaganda piece in more ways than one.

>Doesn't seem related. Maybe it's in the article?
>Nope.

Fuck off ruski, nobody will ever agree with your dumbass country.
