<br />
<br />Reviews the problems that are associated with livestock grazing in western United States
<br />and provides some solutions to these problems. This information is very applicable to
<br />the Upper Colorado River. Paper presented at a workshop on "Livestock and wildlife-
<br />fisheries relationship in the Great Basin" that was held in Sparks, Nevada, during May
<br />3-5, 1977.

<br />ALTERATION, FISH-rare, RIVER-Colorado
<br />
<br />Provides an overview of the ecology of rare fish species (razorback sucker, Colorado squaw-
<br />fish, bony tail chub, humpback chub; and subspecies of cutthroat trout) and projects the
<br />possible impacts of further changes in their populations from various habitat alterations.
<br />Discusses the realities of coexistence of the rare fish species with the potential energy
<br />development in the upper basin.

<br />River. Calif. Fish Game 39(1): 137-139.
<br />
<br />River channel dredging has decreased the value of the Colorado River as a habitat for game
<br />fishes by (1) draining the adjoining backwater lakes and sloughs; (2) eliminating
<br />riparian vegetation cover; (3) eliminating the eddies and "holes" along the river littoral
<br />zone; (4) increasing water turbidity; (5) increasing bank erosion; and (6) reducing the
<br />amount of spawning area.
