  • About the presentation

    Lake sturgeon were once on the edge of extinction in the Great Lakes. These long-lived, migratory fish are making a slow comeback in local waters—including Lake St. Clair and the Detroit River. Come learn about these incredible, interesting and resilient animals, and why their story is the story of clean water, habitat recovery and signs of progress in the region.
