Due to the serious threats to Lancashire’s only population, the Environment Agency have removed the Lune Pearl Mussels and have placed them in one of their fish farms. This secure environment has allowed the establishment of a breeding program and detailed studies of the species.
See more information on Lune Pearl Mussels on the Environment Agency web site.
This project is implementing the Pearl Mussel BAP.
