In many areas of the Great Lakes, whitefish are struggling to maintain their population. Invasive species and climate change related habitat changes are keeping young whitefish from making it to adulthood. One experiment conducted by @michigandnr, @TheNatureConservancy, the Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians, the Bay Mills Indian Community, and @littletraversebaybandsofod366 aims to help them out by returning them to river spawning runs which were lost more than a century ago.
