021-Alligator Gar and more with Dr. Dan Daugherty

You know the saying, "Everything is bigGAR in Texas." In this episode I chat with Dr. Dan Daugherty of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department about the research he is doing with Alligator Gar in Texas. Unfortunately there was an internet issue on my end and part of his answer was not recorded. If you would like to find out more about the answer that he had cut off, check out his paper here: https://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/id6pDA6bjJsuvWHKBZpE/full. 

We also talk about his role as the editor in chief of the North American Journal of Fisheries Management and what all goes in to planning the upcoming Southern Division meeting of the American Fisheries Society which will take place at Moody Gardens in Galveston, TX January 24th through the 27th. More information can be found here: https://units.fisheries.org/tx/tc-meetings/2019-meeting-home-page/.
