- Title
A Lethal Experiment at Gunsight Lake.
- Authors
MONTGOMERY, ARLENE
- Abstract
It should be noted that the bull trout recovery plan for the St. Mary watershed includes actions to facilitate recovery in this unique population on the east side of the continental divide - it does not include anything remotely similar to this experiment! The plan involves poisoning out the rainbow trout that were planted decades ago, then transplanting westslope cutthroat trout, mountain whitefish and bull trout into the lake - fish that were never there. AUGUST 22, 2023 Glacier National Park just approved an ambitious and untested experiment at Gunsight Lake in the St. Mary watershed.
