Who Couldn’t Use a Little Pacific LamPRAISE? In the spirit of the 2024 Endangered Species Athletics, we spotlight the Pacific lamprey – a champion in its own right and a native fish species with one of the most active cheering sections around. The Pacific lamprey is not listed under the Endangered Species Act but is conserved through the Pacific Lamprey Conservation Initiative, a collaboration of a diverse array of partners including Tribes, and federal and state agencies.

Enjoy this team of Pacific lampreys giving some encouraging lamPRAISE, cheering on endangered and threatened compatriots and celebrating conservation of all native species facing the challenges of today.
