November 20, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Speaker: Nicole Watson, Ph.D Student, Michigan State University, on “Michigan’s Grayling Reintroduction”
The meeting will be in the Oak Brook Central Park West Building, 7-9 p.m. Guests are welcome.
Nicole will review the history of Michigan Grayling including their extirpation from Michigan waters and multiple failed attempts at reintroduction. However, with a successful Montana reintroduction, there is renewed hope. Nicole will summarize how the Montana approach is being attempted in Michigan by using “Remote Site Incubators” that enable the fish to “imprint” to their “home waters” at an early stage of development. Nicole is also rigorously researching how well the reintroduced grayling will coexist with resident brown and brook trout populations.
