Dive into the intricate world of British Columbia's salmon with our latest episode featuring Jamieson Atkinson, Program Manager at the Aquatic Research and Restoration Centre, British Columbia Conservation Foundation. Jamieson shares cutting-edge research into the "survival bottlenecks" that are keeping salmon stocks dangerously low. Learn how PIT tags and micro-fishing are helping scientists track juvenile salmon and uncover the critical challenges the fish are facing in the open ocean.
But the story doesn't stop there. Jamieson explains how human interventions, like hatchery-raised salmon, can complicate wild populations and why long-standing log booms in coastal estuaries may be doing more harm than we realize destroying eelgrass, creating anoxic dead zones, and providing easy hunting grounds for seals. Whether you're an angler, a scientist, or just passionate about the ocean, join us for this deep dive into salmon conservation.
