COLORADO GREENBACK CUTTHOAT TROUT by Katherine Homes

This gear repair patch is part of our ArtFix series. Created from original artwork by artist Katherine Homes, wear this patch to show your support for threatened animal species all around the world.

This species was once widespread from the Arkansas River to the Platte, but now occupies less than 1% of its historical river range. It is currently listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Mining in the native river basins lead to sediment and toxic runoff water has led to the decline, along with overfishing and water diversion for agriculture.
