ONU students walk a small barge with an electro shocker down a river near Zanesville. The shocker temporarily stuns the fish, bringing them to the surface, so that professors Ken Oswald and Robert Verb can teach the students about fish identification and fish counts. The field trip is part of an ichthyology class that took place prior to Thanksgiving.
