Sometimes conservation needs a little Fortunate Son. All jokes aside, this work (and video) from Montana FWP is vital to the success of our native cutthroat trout. From FWP: “FWP uses helicopters to stock remote, high-altitude mountain lakes in northwest Montana with native westslope cutthroat trout. These hard-to-reach waters, nestled in the rugged ranges around Glacier National Park and the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex, are vital for conserving this iconic species. By air-dropping trout into these pristine lakes, FWP enhances recreational fishing opportunities for adventurers while bolstering native trout populations. This program, part of decades-long conservation efforts, ensures healthy ecosystems and sustainable angling for future generations.” #MontanaFWP #Montana #MontanaMoment #conservation
