The Michigan Arctic Grayling Initiative

Film Synopsis

The Arctic Grayling disappeared from Michigan waters over 100 years ago. This is the story of what it will take to bring it back. The Michigan Arctic Grayling Initiative is a partnership of over 50 organizations committed to restoring the native grayling to its Michigan habitat.

This is a project from Troy Athens High School students Grace Bright, Abby Bright, Madison Strachan, and Grace Joo.
