THE PILOT YEAR - 2006
The project team spent the pilot year 2006 working on expeditions to the Mekong and Selenge/Baikal (Mongolia) and laying the ground work for future missions to rivers throughout Asia, South America, and North America.

RESULTS - 2006
As a result of project leader Dr. Zeb Hogan’s work with the governments of Cambodia, Thailand, and Laos, it is now illegal to capture the Mekong giant catfish in those countries as of summer 2006.
