Animal movement is a fundamental process for organisms to maximize their fitness, yet it is often challenged by human activities and climate change. For species listed under the Species at Risk Act, like Grass Pickerel (Esox americanus vermiculatus)-a wetland specialist-, understanding their movement ecology can inform conservation strategies. To determine their movement ecology, passive integrated transponder (PIT) tag data for Grass Pickerel in a Niagara Peninsula watershed gathered by Fisheries and Oceans Canada from 2009 to 2013 were analyzed. Of the 2,007 tagged fish, only 16% made movements more than 500m, with a median and maximum movement distance of 1.89 km and 13.5 km respectively. Movements mostly originated from locations with high local abundance, and mobile fish were longer than stationary fish. Hence, while a long-distance dispersal ability exists in extant Grass Pickerel populations, the conditions of riverscapes in southern Ontario may prevent these dispersals from occurring.
