Bringing Lake Sturgeon Back to the Maumee River

by Toledo Zoo June 14, 2017
ShareTweetPin

The Toledo Zoo will begin construction of a modular facility on Zoo-owned property near the Maumee River to headstart lake sturgeon. Toledo Zoo expects to rear thousands of lake sturgeon from eggs collected in U.S. and Canadian waters until the fish are approximately six months old. At that point, the sturgeon will be released into the Maumee River and their population monitored by fisheries biologists with the Ohio Division of Wildlife and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The goal is to rear the fish in Maumee River water from a young age and capitalize on the homing ability of the species in hopes that they will return to the waterway to spawn at adulthood in approximately 20 years.

To learn more about the project, please visit our Wild Toledo website.

What a night it was feasting on food from area chefs at the Passport to the Taste of Italy food challenge! 🇮🇹 

BCAN proudly broadcast this celebration from the @venuestoledo which saw the people choose @m.osteriatoledo for their favorite entree, drink, and dessert! 

The judges gave the nod for entree to @mancysitaliangrill and picked @hannons_block in the drink and dessert categories! 🏆 

The event kicked off the week leading up to, well, kickoff of the @italianbowlusa Saturday at the glass bowl! 🏈
