Fish Conservation

The Freshwater Fish Keystone focuses on species and habitats species that occur in the U.S. or its territories and that have been identified as high priorities for the nation. Freshwater fish (anadromous and catadromous) and associated aquatic life such as mussels, crayfish, and other invertebrates are included in this Keystone. Our goal in the Freshwater Fish Keystone is to find the best conservation investments, fund the best solutions, and deliver measurable results for fish conservation. Under this mission statement we have selected Initiatives that focus on making a measurable impact on the status of specific species and their habitats. Individual Initiatives are listed to the right and are focused under the three themes below that we believe are critical for conserving freshwater fish, aquatic organisms, and their habitats.

Water Flows
Climate Change and Adaptation
Imperiled Fish: Apache Trout and Upper Klamath Basin
