USGS researchers at the Montana Cooperative Fishery Research Unit are working with Yellowstone National park to understand Yellowstone cutthroat trout. Yellowstone National Park generates \$834 million in economic benefits and supports about 9,000 jobs for the local economy. A key part of this economic engine are the animals that the public come to see and enjoy.
