News release from the Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone National Park officials say nonnative brook trout have been newly discovered in Soda Butte Creek.
Park officials are uncertain how the fish have returned, whether it was from an isolated population that found its way into the stream, or if someone deliberately planted the fish.
Seven years after nonnative brook trout were removed from Soda Butte Creek in the northeastern corner of Yellowstone National Park, the fish again have been spotted in the creek.
