Rare fish, last spotted in Ohio creek in 1957, declared extinct 
By Michael Hollan US Source: yahoo 10/6/2021

People hoping to find this rare fish should brace for bad news.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently announced that it plans to remove 23 different species from the Endangered Species Act due to extinction. Among the list is a rare type of fish that was seemingly only found in one area of Ohio.
 

The Scioto Madtom was last sighted by humans back in 1957. According to a press release from the U.S. FWS, the fish was added to the endangered species list back in 1975.

It is believed that the species’ decline was caused by "industrial discharge into waterways and agricultural runoff," although the FWS does state that the exact cause is unknown.
