The Great Lakes have changed dramatically over the past two centuries. Clear-cut logging, unregulated pollution, habitat destruction and overfishing that began in the 1800s gave way to conservation and sustainable harvest by the mid-1900s. Invasive species created new challenges and gave rise to two management programs that attempted to make the most of the damaged lakes: sea lamprey control, and the stocking of non-native salmon and trout.

This video series will relate Great Lakes ecology to the experiences of people who fish for salmon on the Great Lakes, watch them during the fall spawning run in Michigan rivers, and even raise them from egg to smolt in classrooms around the state.

This first video deals with the early life history stages of wild and captive salmon. For more information and curriculum resources related to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources' Salmon in the Classroom Program follow the link below:
