Trout Rescue Mission of 2008-09 Proves Successful

These fish lived in a spring fed tributary - 50 degree ambient temperature water during the winter, 50 degree ambient temperature water during the summer.

These trout received human aid during the summer drought of 2008 by [Censored] water out of [Censored], and survived the 2008/09 winter.

They are all alive today.

A natural flood deposited them into the main Creek this summer. (next video)

These were fed Xxxxx-cup Trout Feed and this video proves that feeding the Natives is probably a more intelligent choice than stocking a stream.

Mehoopany Creek, designated as an HQ-CWF stream.

This stream is still a valuable breeding ground for the endangered native trout. (Oil and Gas Drilling operations will end life as we know it for all of Pennsylvania watersheds)

The next few videos I post are documentation of what will be fleeting moments in time that will prove native trout once existed - before the Gas Drilling & Fracking operations begin.
