Long-lost fish species rediscovered in another section of the Inn River

Wait 5 sec.

The Danube gudgeon had been considered extinct in the Inn River for more than 100 years. Only a few years ago, the highly endangered species was rediscovered there. Now, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have documented the fish in another section of the Inn. The finding emerged from a joint research project with hydropower operator VERBUND examining the effects of nature-like fishways on fish populations and river ecology.
