St. Croix Mussels
Special | 5m 8s
Students from Grantsburg travel to the St. Croix River to study freshwater mussels.
Matt Berg and his students from Grantsburg are diving into research in the headwaters of the Saint Croix River in Douglas Co. They received a grant to study freshwater mussels and at the same time determine water quality. Berg told In Wisconsin Reporter Liz Koerner, mussels are like a "canary in a coal mine" because, if the mussels aren't doing well, everything else in the food chain suffers.
