The silver redhorse is the longest-lived redhorse known by nearly a decade, with ages exceeding 40 years. [2] Redhorses are broadly of conservation concern, as these long-lived species are highly intolerant to environmental pollution, [ 5 ] habitat fragmentation , [ 5 ] and are currently subject to unregulated 21st century sport bowfishing ...
The Importance of Pacific Herring to Birds and Other Wildlife in California and the Northwest Pacific Marine areas off central and northern California are some of the Pacific’s most important areas for marine wildlife. This region attracts and retains a high density of whales, pinnipeds, turtles, large fish, and birds.
More than 1000 redhorse were dumped for disposal in this individual tournament, including piles of shorthead redhorse. [10] For details see 2023 study.

A golden redhorse was seen in this river in 1953, but was never seen there again until 1971. [3] In Canada, the golden redhorse is endemic to Manitoba and Ontario. The fish can be found in the Red River of the North, a river which eventually empties into Hudson Bay. Coincidentally, the Red River in Texas also houses the golden redhorse. [4]
