Lionfish hunters wanted in Florida

• Until Oct. 1, competitors are challenged to catch as many of the fish as they can.

Why it matters: Lionfish are an invasive species with few predators and their exploding populations are harming native fish and coral reefs.

Details: See contest rules from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and register here.

Of note: You'd probably look pretty foxy in special lionfish-hunting apparel by contest sponsor Zookeeper!
