Pearl Mussel Project – Awareness of freshwater pearl mussel amongst farmers

How long have you known about the endangered freshwater pearl mussel? At the PMP catchment consultation meetings held in 2018 we learnt that 45% of farmers have known about them for most of their lives while the remaining 55% have become aware of them in the last five years (10% of whom learnt of them on the day of the meeting!!)..... Great to see an increasing awareness of our endangered biodiversity.
