\ntaken<\/u>: In <\/span>1969,<\/span> a pair of Lake Erie Stizostedion, <\/u>believed to be blue
\npike, were spawned at the Pennsylvania Fish Commission’s Linesville Fish Culture
\nStation. About 9,000 of the fry were transferred to Gavins Point National Fish
\nHatchery at Yankton, South Dakota. Some of the fingerlings were stocked in an
\nisolated lake in northern Minnesota.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Blue
\nPike. <\/span><\/span><\/u>The
\nblue pike (Stizostedion vitreum glaucum) was abundant in the commercial fishery
\nof the Great Lakes. It was historically found in Lakes Erie and Ontario, and in
\nthe Niagara River. ~ 1915, population levels began a cycle of extreme
\nfluctuation caused by over-fishing, leading to the eventual collapse in 1958.
\nThe FWS listed the pike as endangered under the ESCA in 1970. suggesting that
\nintrogressive hybridization with walleye may have caused the final disappearance
\nof the stock. A survey by the Blue Pike Recovery Team in 1977 found no
\nindividuals. In 1983, the EWS declared the blue pike extinct and removed it from
\nthe endangered species list (48 FR 39942). Read more about:\u00a0

About Extinct Species<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Of the 1,676 species on the Lists of Endangered and
\nThreatened Wildlife and Plants (as of November 30, 1997), seven have been delisted<\/u>
\ndue to extinction. Four of these species — the Tecopa pupfish, longjaw cisco,
\nblue pike,
asian carp<\/a> and Santa Barbara song sparrow — were protected under laws
\npre-dating the ESA, and therefore were automatically listed under the ESA when
\nit passed in 1973. They were apparently already extinct by 1973, however.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
