Massachusetts restores old cranberry bog to protect rare brook trout habitat
Massachusetts is converting Century Bog, a former cranberry farm straddling Plymouth and Wareham, into a restored natural wetland. The project aims to complete conservation coverage of Red Brook, connecting White Island Pond all the way to Buttermilk Bay. Once restored, the wetland and stream channel are expected to support around 60 species considered conservation priorities. Among the key beneficiaries are 'salter' brook trout, a rare variety that migrates between freshwater streams and saltwater estuaries.
