Protecting Westslope Cutthroat with a new fish barrier 
CA Source: suncruisermedia 12/19/2015

Installation of a fish barrier on Outlet Creek, which flows out of Whiteswan Lake in the Kootenay Ranges of the Canadian Rockies, is nearing completion. Located below where rainbow trout spawn in Outlet Creek, the barrier is designed to limit these trout from migrating downstream and over the falls into the White River. But why is such a drastic measure needed?
 

In 2010, westslope cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi) were listed under the federal Species at Risk Act as a species of Special Concern throughout their range in Canada. In British Columbia their status is one of Special Concern, while Alberta’s Wildlife Act lists them as Threatened. In the United States, these fish are designated as Imperiled in Idaho, Vulnerable in Montana and Oregon, and Critically Imperiled in Wyoming.
