In 1990 a conservation program began to evaluate the feasibility of using aquaculture to aid recovery of the white sturgeon population in the Kootenai River. Because of a virtual lack of recruitment during the past two decades, the population was formally listed in 1994 as endangered under the U.S. Endangered Species Act of 1973. Recovery program goals are to preserve the genetic variability of the population, rebuild. natural age class structure, prevent extinction, and restore.natural recruitment. Mature wild fish are captured prior to spawning and bred to produce four to 12 separate families per year of four to 10 adults per family at breeding age: We released 2630 age 1-4 juvenile white sturgeon from 1992 to 1999.
