About the event

What sort of creatures inhabit the Musconetcong River? If you're an angler, you might think of trout, and perhaps different kinds of insects. Or, if you're a birder, you may think of bald eagles and mallards. However, the National Wild and Scenic Musconetcong has a variety of beautiful and interesting species   from all over the tree of life. So, join us for a survey of life in the Musconetcong, as well as more targeted information on some animals of interest to researchers and conservationists. First, Ryan Jiorle of the MWA will present the results of recent fish sampling surveys done by the Musconetcong Watershed Association. Then, Robert Somes, Senior Zoologist with NJ Fish and Wildlife, will provide an in-depth look at the life history and conservation of freshwater mussels, one of the most fascinating, yet imperiled groups of organisms calling this Wild and Scenic river home.
