Arctic Grayling

These photos represent two days of a project to survey, and capture eggs to produce fertilized gametes to be used in repopulating the Arctic Grayling fish population in Red Rock Creek, Elk Springs Creek and Elk Lake in the Centennial Valley of Montana. US Fish and Wildlife and Montana Fish and Wildlife agencies are cooperating in this multi-year project to bring the Arctic Grayling back from near endangered species status in the lower 48 states. Photography by James N Perdue.
