Join us & learn about the Pacific Herring - Tuesday, July 8th from 10am - 4pm on the Lighthouse Loop in the Discovery Tent! 🐟️⁠ ⁠ During spring every year the Pacific Herring find themselves along Ucluelet and Tofino coastlines, primarily due to abundant food sources and favourable environmental conditions. These little fish spawn along our coast and leave a pulse of energy and nutrients to our coastal ecosystem. Pacific Herring are a crucial food source for a wide range of predators and admired as a delicacy among Yuułuʔiłʔatḥ and Tla-o-qui-aht groups. The Nuu-chah-nulth translation for herring roe is k̓ʷaqmis.⁠ ⁠ Photo: (k̓ʷaqmis on cedar branches)⁠ ⁠ #raincoasteducationsociety #outdooreducation #raincoasteducation⁠ #wildpacifictrail #discoverucluelet #learning #outdoored #experientallearning #naturebasedlearning #natureschool #tofino #ucluelet #vancouverisland #events #communityevents⁠
