In the second episode of Season 2 of Deep Dive, Daily Inter Lake reporter Kate Heston explores the fascinating story of Montana’s prehistoric white sturgeon, often dubbed 'living dinosaurs,' which have roamed North American waters for millions of years. Despite their remarkable resilience, the Kootenai white sturgeon was declared endangered in 1994, with its population steadily declining due to habitat loss and human interference.
Conservation efforts, spearheaded by the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho, focus on hatchery breeding and habitat restoration. While progress is slow—sturgeon take decades to reach maturity—dedicated conservationists are determined to prevent this ancient species from slipping into extinction.
