Troutreach Saskatchewan is the dream of a few highly trained biology graduates from the University of Saskatchewan and the University of Alberta. Genuine curiosity and love of the natural world drives this research team in multiple sustainability projects occurring throughout Saskatchewan.
Troutreach is supported by the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF). Collectively, these organizations are committed to conservation of wildlife and natural resources within Saskatchewan and enhancing public understanding of science through education.
“Troutreach members want to share their enthusiasm and love of the environment with others.”
