- Title
Sex-specific differences in migratory movements of adult paddlefish above Fort Peck Reservoir, Montana, USA.
- Authors
MILLER, Shannon E.; SCARNECCHIA, Dennis L.
- Abstract
The article discusses the migratory movements of telemetered, adult paddlefish in the River Missouri above Fort Peck Reservoir (MRAFP) in central Montana and focuses on differences in migratory behavior between males and females. It theorizes that the rate of movement, total movement and duration of migration would differ between sexes. It cites the use of drifted, floating gill nets to capture mature paddlefish during April and May of 2006-2009. It indicates that the sex specific differences in movement rates, migration duration and migration periodicity by migratory paddlefish in the study were consistent with other studies.
