Podcast: Maine Brook Trout Surveying

October 25, 2008 By: Marshall Cutchin

We’ve listened to a lot of mp3 files this year, but this is the first that was produced on-stream among biologists examining the health of brook trout populations. Excerpt: “Maine is to brook trout what Alaska is to Pacific salmon, it’s the place you have large numbers of intact populations in the streams they evolved in, in something like their natural state. That’s pretty remarkable if you think about the changes we’ve put on these watersheds over the last three or four hundred years.” From Living on Earth.
