| The aim of the by-laws is to protect populations of rare fish, including vendace, schelly and arctic charr, which live in Cumbria's lakes. |
| One salmonid species found in these lakes is vendace, which is a planktophagous fish. |
| Volunteers are working to save the lake and the wildlife that depend on it, such as the ospreys and a rather special fish called vendace. |
| It is also popular among anglers, being noted for its trout and an introduced rare fish, vendace. |
| Plants and animal species at risk included sphagnum mosses at Moorthwaite Moss, and vendace fish and floating water plantain at Bassenthwaite. |
| The lake is also home to a wide variety of fish, such as the rare vendace, roach, dace and pike. |
