Restoring Glacier's Native Fish

Crown of the Continent Research Learning Center

Description

In this week's Glacier Science Video, Ranger Melissa learns about species of fish that are native to Glacier National Park, and the different challenges they face. First, she visits the Creston National Fish Hatchery, Glacier's partner in raising and restoring native fish, to talk with the hatchery manager about how native fish are collected, raised, and eventually transported back to the park. Next, she returns to Glacier with fish biologist Chris Downs to hear about why native fish are important.
