How fish adapt to life in large urban rivers, like the Chicago River, is one of the questions Dr. Austin Happel is trying to answer at the Shedd Aquarium.

“Knowing where different fish species are hanging out, we can look around that area and kind of understand what that habitat looks like and what it’s providing for them,” Happel said.

Understanding how fish utilize the river is such a key component of effective restoration that Happel, in partnership with Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant and Purdue University, has been tracking fish movements in the Chicago River.
