Lower Ipoly — one river, two worlds.
Upstream of Malé Kosihy weir: stagnant & fragmented.
Downstream: vibrant, full of life.
We’re working to restore fish migration & river health — with WWF Slovakia & Slovak Anglers’ Association.

🐟 A “sturgeon hotel” has opened in Sweden!
Arken is a nursery for Atlantic sturgeon and brings people closer to efforts to re-establish the species in the Göta and Nordre rivers.
Watch how our Swedish associated region is helping bring sturgeon back! 🌊

#MigratoryFish populations worldwide have declined by 3/4 since the 1970s. The reasons for this catastrophic process are rivers' pollution, alteration & damming.
Healthy & free-flowing #rivers are vital for the #biodiversity of #Polesia & #Europe!

Not all fish migrate the same way. 🐟
Some stay in rivers, some in the sea — and some journey between both.

Discover the main migration types in Part II of our Friday Facts.

For many, it’s about reaching the perfect place to spawn — ensuring the next generation survives.
There are two main strategies, but one goal.

👉 Stay tuned for Part II!
