Shetek Shrimp 2008 1 

Eric Squires with his "new friends".  On 2/16/08, this Shetek Prairie MWA Chapter picked up Freshwater Shrimp (scuds or sideswimmers are other common names) from Prairie Land Management, Inc. (PLM) to install in local wetlands for waterfowl food sources.

Mark Evers and Russ Edwards spending some "quality" time together.  Freshwater Shrimp are one of the most important food sources for waterfowl.  Drill the holes, aclimate the shrimp and send them on to help the ducks!
