We’ve been working with our partners to improve fish populations in the Detroit River. Did you know that based on most recent estimates by scientists indicate there are over 6,000 Lake Sturgeon in the Detroit River? Lake Sturgeon were almost extripated from the river but thanks to habitat restoration efforts, including installing spawning reefs, there is now a healthy population in the #DetroitRiver.
