Catch the annual Salmon Run on the Humber River with RCIScience in partnership with SCI AIDE!
Conditions permitting, watch fish like the Brown Trout and Chinook Salmon attempt to jump over the Old Mill Dam on Toronto’s Humber River on this guided walk! Dany Ko leads a discussion on the salmon life cycle, migration, and ongoing research and restoration efforts.
About the Speaker
Dany Ko
(siya/伊 or they/them)
Dany is a queer, deaf, disabled, Chinese/Filipino environmental educator currently bouncing around between various marine, environmental, and community engagements, working with groups such as Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS) and Local Enhancement and Appreciation of Forests (LEAF). They are a founder of SCI AIDE and hope to make science of all sorts more accessible to historically marginalized folks! If you can't find them out on an adventure in the real world, you can certainly find them lost in yet another TTRPG or video game endeavour.
