*Speaker: *Matt Futia, PhD candidate with the Rubenstein Ecosystem Science
Lab at the University of Vermont

*Description:* Many lake trout populations were wiped out by the mid-1900s
across their native range, including in Lake Champlain. Stocking efforts
have reintroduced lake trout to many of these lakes, but self-sustaining
populations remain rare. Today, the lake trout population in Lake Champlain
is a mixture of stocked and naturally-produced (wild) fish – an ongoing
success story. Researchers at the University of Vermont study these fish
using acoustic telemetry, a technique that tracks tagged animals remotely,
to learn more about fish behaviors. Matt will discuss how habitat use
differs between stocked and wild lake trout, and how such variation may
influence the future of the population.
