The Community Working Group overlooking efforts to save the Nechako White Sturgeon says the provincial government has put its rehabilitation efforts on hold. So now it's reaching out to seek support elsewhere. It's received twenty thousand dollars from the District of Vanderhoof, nearly seventeen thousand dollars from Environment Canada and twenty-five hundred dollars from Integris Credit Union. The forty thousand dollars will help educate and communicate the needs of the endangered fish, however the group says it needs the province to build a hatchery in Vanderhoof. It's estimated less than 450 mature fish remain in the Nechako river.
