This grant, provided through CAP funding to Arizona State University (ASU), is specifically designed for the critical purpose of conserving endangered fish species. The funding will enable ASU to maintain robust captive stocks of two imperiled native fish: the Gila topminnow and the Yaqui topminnow. This vital conservation effort aims to prevent the extinction of these species by ensuring a genetically healthy and viable population. The ultimate objective is for these captive-bred populations to serve as a crucial resource for future repatriation efforts, allowing for the reintroduction of these topminnows into their natural habitats and contributing to the recovery of aquatic ecosystems.
