“…This data could contribute to the knowledge of habitat and movement preferences as juveniles (Johnson, Hintz, James, Phelps, & Tripp, ), as well as improving assessment of invasive potential by evaluating the ability of juvenile bigheaded carps to avoid or pass through obstacles previously assumed to be barriers. Acoustic telemetry of juvenile bigheaded carps would be especially beneficial to track movements in areas near electric barriers installed to guard against the spread of bigheaded carps (Moy, Polls, & Dettmers, ), because small fish are not as affected by electric fields (Holliman, ; Holliman, Killgore, & Shea, ). Recent technological advances in telemetry transmitters has increased the availability of tags sufficiently small enough to implant in juvenile fish (Ashton et al, ; Hockersmith et al, ; Thompson, Gwinn, & Allen, ).…”
