SOMETHING FISHY’S GOING ON HERE:The state of Colorado, assisted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, has been working since the 1970s to try to restore the Colorado state fish, the greenback cutthroat trout, to rivers in the Rockies. The University of Colorado just did a study to see how they’re doing. The result: DNA analysis shows that the fish being stocked in the rivers all that time isn’t the greenback cutthroat trout, but rather the Colorado River cutthroat trout. (Denver Rocky Mountain News) …In related news, the Colorado Legislature has introduced a bill to name the Colorado River cutthroat trout the state’s official fish.www.thisistrue.comRUMORSMore about land:
