Lionfish Information
There are many stakeholders in the Treasure Coast of Florida, who are working collaborately to educate the public on the menacing lionfish. Although the invasion has been swift, we truly feel that any and all eradication efforts will make a difference. This website is designed to assist all stakeholders with their efforts.
Lionfish Eradication - Highlights ongoing eradication efforts. Currently Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation is working on a project to verify areas of the Indian River Lagoon System, where lionfish are known or suspected. If you have an interest in joining in their effort please contact Jeff Beal @ jeff.beal@myfwc.com. Click here for the Indian River Lagoon Lionfish Megatransect Survey, 2012.
