October 30 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The Science and Policy of Migratory Fish Recovery
Join the State of the James team for the final session in our teacher series, focusing on a critical indicator of river health: our migratory fish. This webinar is tailored for High School educators and will provide the context, data, and policy challenges surrounding species like the American Shad.
The new State of the James report highlights the complex science and policy decisions required to restore these keystone species. This session will provide you with:
- Current data on American shad, Smallmouth bass, and juvenile Striped bass populations
- An advanced look at the cumulative threats to migratory fish
- Resources for engaging high school students through the lens of species recovery plans.
Equip your students with the scientific literacy and critical thinking skills needed to understand and advocate for a healthier James River ecosystem.
