Exciting Discoveries in
Fall Fish Surveys
Our fall fish surveys have just wrapped up and we've made some thrilling discoveries!
In the San Lorenzo River lagoon, we spotted a robust adult steelhead along with a good number of juvenile steelhead, a testament to our ecosystem's health. We also encountered juvenile chinook salmon. Though chinook are not considered to be native to the San Lorenzo River, their presence here is further testament to the improving health of the river. We also observed juvenile Coho salmon in Laguna Creek lagoon. Coho are on the verge of extinction and the City has made tremendous efforts to improve conditions in Laguna Creek. It was extremely gratifying to see that they are doing well there!
We're delighted to welcome new members from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and Cal Trout as they dive into our work and connect with partners. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our conservation efforts. Thanks for the photo from Noriko Kawamoto!
