Approach
Increase resilience of native fish species by reducing barriers to native species and removing non-native species
Tactics
- Survey and map non-native species
- Combine non-native mapping with information on migration barriers
- Consider information from surveys of warmer basins farther south as indicators of vulnerability
- Assess migration barriers and potential habitat for native species
- Remove barriers to fish passage where they will not increase threats from non-native species
- Maintain or construct barriers to prevent spread of non-native species
- Remove or control non-native fish species
- Restore native trout to high-elevation
- cold-water refugia.
