Sixteen years after we landed on the moon, explorers reached the deepest point in the Great Lakes. Forty years later, we’re going back. We’re teaming up with @hiddenbelow.bsky.social on June 6 at 1 PM ET to send an underwater drone down to livestream everything we see: GreatLakesNow.org/HiddenBelow

Go tell it on the mountain - the Mountain Mullet (Dajaus monticola), that is! ⛰️ #25DaysofFishmas Day 6 takes us to the rainforests of Puerto Rico where this freshwater mullet species - also known as dajao or tepemechín - proves there ain’t no mountain high enough to keep from celebrating #Fishmas!

On the 5th day of #Fishmas, my true love gave to me…5 Gold Rings? Boring. Up your gift-giving game instead this season by giving your love the Golden Redhorse (Moxostoma erythrurum), a fish who - despite being part of the sucker family (Catostomidae)- definitely does not suck 🍭 #25DaysofFishmas
