Wildlife biologist
He is the good friend
of dwindling species
By 808 WELKOS
Associated Press Writer
RENO, Nev. (AP) - The tiny
Warm Springs pupfish has a
friend in James Yoakum. So do
the South American vicuna that
climbs the jagged cliffs of the
Peruvian Andes and the skitter
ish pronghorn antelope that
darts across the sagebrush-cov
ered hills of the American West.
But friends can only do so
much.
While Yoakum has had suc
cess in saving the pupfish and
the vicuna, a relative of the
llama, from "extirpation” or
extermination by man he is
clearly worried about the sur
vival of several species of wild
life in this sparsely populated
state.
“We are winning certain bat
tles but losing the over-all war,”
Yoakum said. “Wildlife habitat
is, in general, declining in this
state.”

Sgt. Blount said 18 persons

who has headed the U.S. Bureau
of Land Management’s wildlife
habitat management program
in Nevada for 16 years, makes
this startling statement:
“Within the last 100 years, six
to 10 species of fish have been
extirpated or wiped out by man,
50 per cent of which were in
Nevada. Most of it occurred
down in the Las Vegas area
within the last half-century.”
Yoakum, the first wildlife bi
ologist hired by the BLM, is
credited with helping save the
Warm Springs pupfish, 90 per
cent of its number existing in a
bathtub-size pool on federal
land in southern Nevada.
At one point, Yoakum said,
the pupfish population was
down to only 200. Yoakum and
the BLM set about building two
more bathtub-size pools, fenced
off the area and now there are
about 400 Warm Springs pup
fish.

The post commander said a
total of 223 pending traffic cases
were disposed in the probate
court with the following
dispositions: 53 guilty pleas, 162
bond forfeitures, 2 dismissed,
and 6 nolo contendere pleas.
Sgt. Blount pointed out that
fines and forfeitures amounted
to $13,498.00 which were paid to
the Probate Court of Spalding
County.

but he’s on the road “50 per cent
of the time.” His fourth-floor
office is adorned with pictures
of antelope — an animal for
which he has had a special
passion.
Once it was estimated there
were 40 million to 60 million
pronghorn antelope in North
America, Yoakum said. By
1915, there were about 10,000.
Commercial hunters slaugh
tered the herds, but game man
agement has increased the pop
ulation to about 500,000 today,
he said.
Yoakum said controlled hunt
ing and a conservation-minded
public was responsible for the
increase in the pronghorn popu
lation.
