Species on Station

The Mora National Fish Hatchery currently houses three species on station. The primary mission of the hatchery is dedicated to the recovery of the threatened Gila trout. The Desert and Sonora Sucker, species that coexist with the Gila trout in the wild, are also kept on station to rear fish in as close to a natural setting as possible.

The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with
others to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants and
their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people.
