Molly Monroe has been a wildlife biologist in the Pacific Northwest for over 20 years. She received her degree from OSU and has worked with private, state and federal agencies on everything from the Northern spotted owl to fighting invasive species. Her favorite projects involve listed species and solving the unique issues they face in our ever changing landscapes. Molly's interest in the Monarch butterfly began as a young student when they were raised and released from their classroom in Oregon City, and she has been able to share that interest with other young students in more recent years. Molly lives in Corvallis with her husband and her 5 year old daughter, Amelia.

Hot Conservation and Fisheries News
Columbia River Gill Nets

The ODFW Fish Commission recently decided to allow an extension to commercial gill nets in the Columbia Main channel. This is a departure from the previous agreed plan where gill nets would be moved off the channel to SAFE zones. The decision is also different from the Washington commission decision.

TU is against this extension and have communicated our position to those of concern. Read Bill Monroe's Article
