Environmental Voices:
Fishing for Science
Monday, July 1 from 9:00 – 2:30pm at
the Schlitz Audubon Nature Center – 1111 E. Brown Deer Rd., Milwaukee WI 53217
Be a part of Ozaukee County’s new Fish Passage Program which is assisting
fish that migrate to overcome barriers that people have created in the
Milwaukee River. On this day we will help assess fish populations at a specific
location in the Milwaukee River. Participants will have the opportunity to
capture and release fish using “electrofishing”, learn about fish
identification and ecology, and develop an understanding of the relationship of
the river watershed to the health of the fish and people that eat them. Waders
will be provided for those interested in helping capture the fish, or you can
stay on shore to examine the fish that are caught. Transportation provided. Pre-Registration
is required please call: 414-352-2880 x0. For additional information on
programs and events please visit our website at: www.sanc.org.
