This podcast focuses on the barriers to Atlantic salmon restoration in New York — and the future of New York's fisheries.
Can Atlantic salmon be restored in New York State?
This is a podcast that includes audio from an interview that I completed with an esteemed fisheries scientist at SUNY ESF, Dr. Neil Ringler. The podcast discusses the history/cultural significance of Atlantic salmon, incentives to reintroduce, implications to existing fisheries, barriers to reintroduction, Dr. Ringler’s vision, restoration on behalf of Native Americans, Dr. Ringler’s current assessment of the fisheries, and the role of anglers in reintroduction.
