Bonneville cutthroat trout is a truly resilient species. They survived the desiccation of their original home - ancient Lake Bonneville, adapted to life in mountain streams, persisted in remote headwaters when nonnative trout invaded their habitat, and with help from various management agencies, returned to much of their historic range. However, the struggle for Bonneville cutthroat trout and the organizations that wish to protect them is not over. This resilient species faces threats in the form of drought, wildfire, and a warming climate. Join us to learn about the history and future of Bonneville cutthroat trout in Great Basin National Park.
Our Speaker: Jonathan Reynolds is the Fish Biologist at Great Basin National Park, and he has been working with Bonneville cutthroat trout for the last 13 years.
