Conservation Projects
Over the last few years, the Australian Trout Foundation has successfully colaborated with the DEPI (Arthur Rylah Institute) in an effort to save 2 highly endangered native fish species from extinction; the Barred Galaxias in Leary's Creek, Marysville and the Shaw's Galaxias from the upper regions of the Macalister River catchment.

We are also currently engaged in a partnership project with Zoos Victoria, Arthur Rylah Institute, Melbourne Uni, VRFish and Native Fish Australia to help save the critically endangered Spotted Tree Frog.
More details will be provided in future as this project progresses.
