Survival and Dispersal of Sonic‐Tagged, Hatchery‐Reared Burbot Released into the Kootenay River
Abstract As part of recovery efforts for the Kootenay population of Burbot Lota lota , we monitored 109 sonic‐tagged, hatchery‐reared Burbot released at 1–3 years of age throughout Kootenay Lake and the Kootenay River over a 3‐year period. Our objectives were to evaluate broodstock choice, assess di...
