Carp is a main ingredient in Eastern European Jewish cooking. Most gefilte fish, is made from carp (other freshwater fishes have been used).

She should check with a food bank. As long as they were alive when handed off there shouldn't be an issue. Is she sure that the 'alive' rule applies to 'pests'? If she were studying tapeworms, would she have to find new hosts for them?

Besides, almost any fish tastes good battered and fried. Fish and chips, anyone?

Seriously, one way of managing a 'pest' is to find an economical way to exploit it. Finding ways to make carp an attractive food source might allow the public to solve the problem. An eatable fish with no fishing limits? Mankind has a tendency to overfish fish that are edible.
