Idlewood Creek is a tributary of the Grand River, and an important habitat for many fish species that had dwindled in numbers thanks to two dams that were built across is, preventing them from reaching its upper sections. However, the city of Kitchener identified this problem and has since removed the barriers, allowing the fish to thrive once again in the full length of the creek.
