Get Outside! | 2024 Boating Season - Aquatic Invasive Species
The summer boating season is soon to kick off, and in some places, watercraft users have already started, thanks to the mild winter Wyoming is having. As boaters and other watercraft users prepare for warmer waters, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s Aquatic Invasive Species program is already in operation. Many watercraft check stations opened, as they usually do, on March 1. What do watercraft users need to know heading into another boating season, and what happens if an aquatic invasive species like a zebra or quagga mussel is found on your watercraft? Josh Leonard is the Statewide Aquatic Invasive Species Coordinator for the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and joins us on today's podcast.
