When it comes to a natural ecosystem, the more complex it is — the more animals and plants that interdepend on another — the more fragile it is.

Learn why freshwater biodiversity is so important to the ecosystem from Dr. Bernie Kuhajda, an aquatic conservation biologist at the Tennessee Aquarium Conservation Institute (TNACI) in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Dr. Kuhajda has built a career around studying and protecting imperiled (or soon to be imperiled) species that occupy the richly biodiverse waters of the Southeastern United States.
