Book Description

This Recovery Strategy for Misty Lake Sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) includes the following population and distribution objectives: (1) maintain, or where possible increase, abundance of each population (inlet, lake, outlet) relative to the 2016 observed population sizes; and (2) to maintain the current spatial distribution of each population (inlet, lake, outlet) and maintain the two distinct forms by preventing an increase in hybridization that could lead to the collapse of the species pair into a hybrid swarm. As well, broad strategies and approaches necessary to address threats to the recovery of Misty Lake Sticklebacks are identified. Activities may be added, adapted and revised as new information is gathered.--Document.
