Parry Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Hey, i am currently taking an Environmental History class at the university and my term project involves me composing a map in regards to some geological effect that humans have had on their environment. So I figured why not mix school with my passion of fishing. So I chose to do my map on the effects that humans have had on the populations and the home range of the bull trout on the Eastern slope streams of Alberta in the last 100years. I was wondering if anyone had information on as to where I could get some Trout unlimited or forestry information that could give me solid figures or estimates as to the populations in various streams or area's for various dates. I will eventually be contacting various chapters of trout unlimited to see what information I can get directly from them but I also know that there are some very knowledgeable people who are on this board. So any help would be much appreciated and when all is said and done I might have a nice map to show the community and we can all pick some streams in search of this beautiful fish. Thanks Dustin Parry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taco Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Check with SRD, the Area Biologists likely can help also Biological Sciences @ U of L some grad students were doing some field work with native fish last summer.. they may have something that can help.
