Are Trout More Important than People?
We sometimes hear comments like "some people care more about trout than about people." Admittedly Eyes of Paint Branch makes much of the wild brown trout in the Paint Branch. However, those who make these kinds of remarks have missed the most important part of our message. A stream that supports a wild trout population also means healthy places for children to play in, a diversity of plants and animals and birds for people to enjoy looking at and living with, and working wetlands that naturally avert the flooding of homes and filter out pollutants. Our intent is to make this a little better place for people to live. Look for more on this topic from us in the near future. |
