The Devils Hole pupfish population dipped to only 35 identified individuals in 2013. Although the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has been successful in establishing a colony of pupfish in their 100,000 gallon refuge tank, predation by beetles has made recovery of eggs to create a captive-raised laboratory population nearly impossible.
