Bridge Lunch Break: Michigan's Disappearing Whitefish

Whitefish have remained a staple in the Great Lakes for millennia, surviving threats that decimated other species. Now, they are on the brink themselves; catches have plummeted, newborns are dying and adults are approaching old age. Some fear the fish could disappear entirely from their once-prime habitat in the lower Great Lakes. Bridge Michigan's environmental reporter Kelly House will discuss the fish's history and future with Ellen Marsden, Professor (emerita) at the University of Vermont, Douglas W. Craven, Natural Resource Department Director with the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, and Amanda Holmes, Executive Director of the Fishtown Preservation Society.
