Scientific Studies & Conservation

Through curiosity, scientific method, and hard work, chapter members throughout the state have helped shed light on the mysterious life of our salmon and trout. Developing and utilizing emerging technologies, committing to regular fieldwork, and simply asking questions out of curiosity has helped us answer the hard questions about these unique fish and the problems they are facing. This work is vitally important in providing a sturdy foundation from which to advocate for policy change, restoration work, and conservation.
