Check out this adventurous bluegill from our acoustic telemetry study w/ @Shedd_Research! In a 15 day period, it swam throughout the South Branch & downtown portion of the Chicago River. Acoustic tags allow researchers to understand how fish respond to restoration initiatives.

Replying to @shedd_aquarium
@shedd_aquarium researchers, @HookLab and @ILINSeaGrant are excited to kick off our study to better understand how fish respond to different river restoration activities in the Chicago River. Last week, 80 fish were equipped with acoustic tags that allow us to track movements.
