This is a thank-you card I received from Trout Unlimited Canada in 2013 because of my engagement in the annual fish rescue. In the fall, irrigation channels are drained and the countless fish that entered these channels in the summer lose their water, and inevitably their lives if nothing is done to save them. As the president of the University of Calgary Biology Student’s Association, I organised student volunteers to help Trout Unlimited capture and rescue these fish to be released in nearby bodies of water. Besides rescuing thousands of fish, valuable data is collected regarding the species, size composition, and abundance of entrained fish. The Fish Rescue is also an excellent educational opportunity for the many volunteers and participants.
