Official Colorado State Fish
Many species in the west have decreased in numbers or are entirely extinct, but the greenback cutthroat trout made a beginning for a comeback. In a discovery in 2012, it was confirmed a naturally reproducing population was found in Bear Creek west of Colorado Springs. The Division of Wildlife hoped that population could hang on. It has apparently grown in numbers and wildlife scientists started stocking greenback cutthroat from Bear Creek into waters of Herman Gulch, a popular hiking trail off of I-70. The stocked greenbacks are now at age to reproduce.
Colorado Trout Unlimited said the Herman Gulch project is great news for the state's watersheds. Trout Unlimited thanks the many of the nonprofit's volunteers who carried tanks of water loaded with greenback fry to an area in Herman Gulch's stream for a series of years. Executive Director David Nickum said, "Wildlife advocates will be watching to see if reproduction is sustainable in places in Colorado."
Maybe Colorado's Official state fish, the Greenback Cutthroat Trout, can make a comeback to their previous numbers and impact in their the place in the environment.
