Native Fish Restoration

Conservation Fisheries' goal is to restore fish populations that have been eliminated because of pollution or habitat destruction. They were the first facility in the Southeast to propagate rare, non-game fishes for recovery work. J.R. Shute, Co-director of CFI, will discuss these and other activities, including non-invasive monitoring of the status of populations of rare fishes in the Southeast. CFI's restoration efforts include work in the Conasauga River.
