#37 || Emily Yeung: Saving a Ghost - The Fight to Keep Atlantic Whitefish Alive
In this episode of Doc Talks Fishing, we sit down with fisheries scientist Emily Yeung to uncover the incredible story of the Atlantic whitefish—a "living fossil" on the brink of extinction. These elusive fish have survived millions of years of evolution, yet today, they cling to existence in just a handful of Nova Scotian lakes. Emily breaks down why this species is so unique, what catastrophic threats have pushed them to the edge, and why their survival matters-not just for ecosystems, but for anglers and conservationists alike. Could hatcheries and captive breeding be their last hope? Tune in to find out.
