In this episode, Anders Halverson talks to Dr. Brian Healy about the conservation of native fishes in Grand Canyon National Park. Although big dams like Glen Canyon have profoundly changed the Colorado River, native fishes like the humpback chub have managed to hang on in some of its tributaries. Now Brian and others are trying to expand their tenuous toehold even as climate change and the ongoing drought create new threats.
