This grant is for the cooperative assessment of pallid sturgeon populations in the Middle Mississippi River. Managed by the USFWS Carterville Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office in collaboration with the Missouri Department of Conservation, this initiative aims to enhance understanding of critical aquatic species. Future projects may expand to address American eel habitat needs within the Mississippi River Basin and investigate the ecological interactions between invasive Asian carp and native planktivorous fish. The overall purpose is to support robust big river management strategies, ensuring the health and biodiversity of these vital aquatic ecosystems through targeted research and conservation efforts, ultimately fostering a more sustainable river environment.
