In celebration of 44th a Tringali, and Mrs. Staufenberg's class.
Also students from t he Longwood Middle School:
Room: 101&102 also had the opportunity to release
their trout as well. News 12 stopped by for a while to
interview the teachers about the trout. About 400
young trout were released today, as an effort to restore the dwindling Brook Trout population
on Long Island. The Brook Tro ut(Salvelinus fontinalis) can grow to be about 12in. long or more. The reason why we are restoring the Brook Trout population, is because in the 19th century, during the industrial revolution, many rivers were damned and polluted. We are trying to restore the native population of Brook Trout because of this. Finally the Brook Trout is the official New York State fish, ironic because of their currently low populations.
