U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced Wednesday that the Apache trout — Arizona's state fish — has been removed from the federal list of endangered and threatened species following more than five decades of recovery efforts.

Haaland traveled to Arizona for the announcement, which is considered an important conservation success marking the first sportfish and the first trout to be removed from the list.

“This recovery is a testament to the importance of the Endangered Species Act and its tools and resources that are allowing the Interior Department and the federal government to protect vital species in every corner of America,” said Haaland.
