Colorado wildlife authorities to kill reservoir fish and restock with native trout in new restoration project
Fox News
Colorado Parks and Wildlife is draining the Rito Hondo Reservoir and is applying a piscicide to kill off existing fish before the agency reintroduces native Rio Grande cutthroat trout.
Rotenone is a broad-spectrum insecticide and herbicide derived from jicama vine plants and many Fabaceae plants, which is also toxic to fish, according to the National Library of Medicine’s PubChem, a chemical glossary associated with the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Cortney Moore is an associate lifestyle writer on the Lifestyle team at Fox News Digital.
The CPW plans to conduct the rotenone treatment beginning the week of July 24 and stock the Rito Hondo Reservoir with native Rio Grande cutthroats by summer 2024.
