There have been no artificial stocking programs for Atlantic sturgeon since the [threatened or endangered species] listings. While it is possible that these could be a tool for recovery in the future, there is no apparent need for these programs... because current evidence suggests that remnant, albeit very small, populations may exist in rivers where Atlantic sturgeon were previously believed to be extirpated. In addition, it is uncertain whether an artificial stock would establish in a non-natal river. For example, genetic analyses of adult sturgeon captured in [one river] indicates that the fish are a remnant of the historical spawning population and are not the sturgeon or the progeny of the sturgeon that were introduced to the [same river]. 2, record 1, English, - artificial%20stock

The population status of Walleye of Tathlina Lake appears to have improved between 2001 and 2007. The mean size (length and weight) of Walleye and age of Walleye has increased, while the increase in catch-per-unit effort of and proportion of Walleye in the total catch suggests an increase in Walleye biomass in the lake. The presence of the strong 1997 year class that reached sexual maturity in 2003 was left to spawn multiple times without considerable harvest has likely helped improve the status of the population. 3, record 2, English, - population%20status

Univariate habitat differences among redside dace population status groups were evident; with the greatest contrasts between stable and extirpated populations... In comparison to extirpated populations, greater amounts of fine sediment, shallow pool and glide habitats, instream cover, riparian grasses, and vulnerable banks were measured at stable sites. 1, record 3, English, - extirpated%20population
