Species on Station The hatchery works with the imperiled paddlefish, alligator gar, and alligator snapping turtle and raises channel catfish for recreational fishing on Native American lands, National Wildlife Refuges, and military bases. In addition to these large species hatchery biologists have developed ways to raise two small fish species that are threatened by human-caused habitat changes. If it becomes necessary to rear Arkansas River shiners and leopard darters in captivity, the hatchery will be ready for them.
