A fish-friendly reminder from the Ottawa Valley Aquarium Society…

Please join us for an insightful talk on an evolutionary branch of fish keeping, where the land is no boundary!

Alyssa Gonzalez has a scientific background and has been involved as a member with our club for a number of years. She will be presenting “On Little Finny Hands: Fish That Walk,” a presentation about fish that walk, climb, venture onto land, and otherwise defy our intuition that fish must swim. Alyssa will also dive into some ground-breaking animal taxonomy along the way.

We will have some open vendor’s tables for people (including you) who want to bring some stuff to sell, so bring some cash, just in case.
