National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Eulachon Historical Presence within Redwood Creek/Redwood National Park. 2010-2015
Reports related to Eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) presence in Redwood Creek within Redwood National Park. Large eualchon runs were reported in 1973 by CDFG observations near Orick, with observed upstream migration extent extending beyond Tom McDonald Creek, assumed to reach Bridge Creek. The species was listed in 2010, with critical habitat designation extending from the mouth of Redwood Creek to Tom Mcdonald Creek. In 2015 2 eulachon were captured at CDFG screw traps located in Prairie Creek (near confluence with Redwood Creek) and Redwood Creek (~3.8 miles from mouth).
