With new research indicating a lack a connectivity for Yellowstone cutthroat trout downstream and upstream of the Felt Dam, the need to modify or remove the dam during the ongoing relicensing process is greater than ever.

A new poll commissioned by American Rivers found that 83% of eastern Idaho voters support some form of long-term protection for the Teton River Canyon, and 84% of voters support long-term protection for its major tributaries including Bitch, Badger and Canyon creeks. Hopefully, the BLM will take this into account when it updates its resource management plan (RMP) later this year.
