Blog: Coalition sues Trump regime to list white sturgeon under federal Endangered Species Act
The White Sturgeon of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta is one of the most treasured fish species among anglers in California. … I have spent hundreds of hours fishing for these behemoths and have caught dozens of these fish over the decades, but this fishery is now on the decline. … With this decline in mind, the San Francisco Baykeeper, California Sportfishing Protection Alliance, Restore the Delta, and Friends of the River on Feb. 12 filed a lawsuit against the US Fish and Wildlife Service and the Secretary of the US Department of the Interior for “failing to deliver a legally required initial determination whether or not to list the San Francisco Bay’s population of White Sturgeon as a threatened species.”
