Fish and Aquatics
The records are believed to be under-represented. It is hoped that clearing
and unblocking the streams, improving the flow and light, and hopefully
then flushing through silt will re-introduce optimal habitats and additional
aquatic environments. Chalk streams, globally rare and significant, create
diverse and highly productive ecosystems. Conservation of the streams will
in turn result in boosting the populations of birds and mammals resident
or passing through the Fen.
