Biologist Interviewed About New Movie

UMaine’s Mike Kinnison, an associate professor of evolutionary applications, was interviewed for a segment of the web series “Down to Earth” in a YouTube video about the new movie, “Salmon Fishing in Yemen.” Kinnison said the idea of salmon fishing in Yemen is far-fetched because Yemen has no year-round flowing rivers. Kinnison also discussed efforts to restore salmon in Maine, and about high-tech ways for tracking sturgeon to identify their critical habitat.
