About Pam Sponholtz

Pam came to the Service after six years of experience under the Environmental Protection Agency sampling zooplankton on the Great Lakes. After an awe-inspiring trip to the Grand Canyon in 1995, Pam moved to Arizona and obtained her master’s degree in Biology from Northern Arizona University where she investigated native and non-native fish relationships in conjunction with habitat alteration in the Upper Verde River. After working for Arizona Game and Fish Department as the State Aquatic Habitat Specialist, she started working for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on recovery and monitoring of native fishes in the northern part of Arizona, including the Colorado River and Grand Canyon National Park. She supervised the Colorado Fish & Wildlife Conservation Office for many years, including extensive recovery and conservation efforts for listed species on Department of Defense lands and in Rocky Mountain National Park. She is now in Bozeman, Montana working for the Aquatic Animal Drug Approval Partnership Program (AADAP).
