"I've never heard of this before," said research biologist and project lead Zeb Hogan, from the University of Nevada Reno. "It's a hopeful sign that the species is not in imminent, like in the next few years, risk of extinction, which gives conservation activities time to be implemented and to continue to bend the curve away from decline and toward recovery."
"By tagging these fish, we gain critical information about their ecology, their migrations, their habitat… to try to help these fish survive in the future," Hogan said.
