A number of plants and animals that were once native to Grand Canyon can no longer be found within its' boundaries. Native plants and animals that are no longer present in a place that was once their home are called '''extirpated species'''. The Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program has a goal to restore populations of extirpated species, to the extent feasible and advisable.

At least 14, to more than 23 animal species that existed or regularly bred in the

CRE have been extirpated, with only two of those extirpations occurring prior to the closure of

Glen Canyon Dam in 1963 (California condor - Gymnogyps californianus, and gray wolf - Canis

lupus youngi; Table 2; Appendix A). TMC known to have been extirpated include: 4 fish

Extirpated Species

At least 14, to more than 23 animal species that existed or regularly bred in the CRE have been extirpated, with only two of those extirpations occurring prior to the closure of Glen Canyon Dam in 1963 (California condor - Gymnogyps californianus, and gray wolf - Canis lupus youngi; Table 2; Appendix A). TMC known to have been extirpated include: 4 fish (Colorado pikeminnow – Pychocheilus lucius, razorback sucker – Xyrauchen texanus, and bonytail and roundtail chub – Gila elegans and G. robusta, respectively), 2 amphibians (Lithobates pipiens and L. nr. yavapaiensis), zebra-tailed lizard, 4 birds (breeding southwestern willow flycatcher – Empidonax trailii extimus; western yellow-billed cuckoo - Coccyzus americanus occidentalis, Gambel’s quail - Callipepla gambelii, and California condor, which was reintroduced outside the CRE in 1996); and 3 mammals (badger – Taxodea taxa; the likely extinct southwestern river otter – Lutra canadensis sonora; and gray wolf, which was extirpated from northern Arizona prior to 1946). The status of several apparently rare herpetofauna (e.g., regal ring-necked snake – Diadophis punctatus regalis, western threadsnake – Leptotyphlops humilis, other snakes), as well as numerous rare plant and invertebrate taxa, remains unknown. [1]

Desired Future Condition for Extirpated Species

Re-establish fishes extirpated from Grand Canyon, where feasible and consistent with recovery goals for humpback chub and the recovery goals of those extirpated fishes.
