Last week, the students participating in the Aquatic Ecology and Fisheries Management Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) visited the Ohio Division of Wildlife's Inland Fisheries Research Unit (IFRE) at the Hebron State Fish Hatchery for a tour and a demonstration on otolith extraction and aging.
