Community Talk: Pacific Herring Recovery on Feb 25

Remember the remarkable herring spawn around Thetis Island last spring? That vivid event was more than a natural spectacle, it highlighted what’s at stake for Pacific Herring in the Strait of Georgia.

According to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), herring have been overharvested to the point of extirpation south of Dodd Narrows, making recovery especially difficult.

Join ThINC for an eye-opening talk with Jim Shortreed, President of the Herring Conservation & Restoration Society, and discover how we can help Pacific Herring recover from critical decline.

When: Wednesday, February 25 • 7:00 PM
Where: Forbes Hall
