that is a galant effort on the dnr part.
they will be lucky if 10% of what they released reaches breeding age... to bad it will be 20 years before they are ready for harvest and breeding. hope they plan on planting every year untill the first plant reaches breeding age to asure that the stergeon realy takes hold...
most of these stergeon will end up a feast to pike bass walleye gar dowg fish and muskey....
in a natural senario that many stergeon would be born in those areas on a yearly bases. with only 10% of those reaching maturity.
my hat is off to them.... and best wishes for a secessfull venture.....
