Every year, Utah Division of Wildlife officials collect fish for a breeding program. Their goal is the Tiger muskie – the division’s secret weapon in managing fish populations throughout the state. Today on the news, we spend time fishing. Plus, a National Park Service program aims to recruit interns from diverse backgrounds historically underrepresented at the federal agency.
