Figure 1. Distribution of the Colorado squawfish in
the Colorado River Basin. Bold lines indicate
areas where populations of Colorado squawfish
still exist (modified from Kaeding and

Osmundson 1988) ...............................2

Figure 2. Relation between total length and time to
starvation for all dying fish. Len~th =
28.06 + .03 (time to starvation); r = 0.40 ... 21

Figure 3. Percent survival of starved age-O Colorado
squawfish during the 210-day winter period 22

Figure 4. Relation between lipid content and body water
for age-O Colorado squawfish. Lipid content
= 220.79 - 2.54 (body water); r2 = 0.92 ....... 24

Figure 5. Hypothetical relations bet~een fish size and
time to starvation in nature .................. 31
