World Fish Migration Day is this Saturday – May 21st!

On May 21 – 2022 we celebrate the 5th World Fish Migration Day and at this point over 340 events have been registered from over 55 countries. Together with our colleagues around the world we want to save migratory fish in rivers and create real impact for the sake of rivers, fish, wildlife and people. Feel free to register an event too via www.worldfishmigrationday.com. The bigger this movement becomes the more impact we can make. 

The Southeast Alaska Fish Habitat Partnership (SEAKFHP, www.seakfhp.org) and partners will be hosting many regional and local events. Including a walk across the Juneau-Douglas Bridge to raise awareness to fish friendly road-stream crossings and a virtual film festival (details are included in the attached file).

Huge thanks to our many partners who shared their loveable mascots with us (USFS’s Smokey Bear and NOAA’s Ocean Guardian School sea creatures).
