White Sturgeon of the Columbia River  

Did You Know?
There are sturgeon in Lake Roosevelt 8 to 20 feet long. They are also at least 64 years of age. Since they don't like to reproduce in the reservoir, no new sturgeon have been born since 1942 when the dam was finished. However, the state reintroduced sturgeon in 2006 to help the population out.
