13.5.1 Lost River and Shortnose Suckers
Upon locating a dead, injured, or sick endangered or threatened species specimen, prompt
notification must be made to the nearest USFWS Law Enforcement Office (Wilsonville, Oregon;
telephone: 503-682-6131) and the Klamath Falls Fish and Wildlife Office (Klamath Falls,
Oregon; telephone: 541-885-8481). Care should be taken in handling sick or injured specimens
to ensure effective treatment and care or the handling of dead specimens to preserve biological
material in the best possible state for later analysis of cause of death. In conjunction with the
care of sick or injured endangered species or preservation of biological materials from a dead
animal, the finder has the responsibility to carry out instructions provided by Law Enforcement
to ensure that evidence intrinsic to the specimen is not unnecessarily disturbed.
The Annual Incidental Take and Term and Condition Monitoring Report shall be submitted to
the Field Supervisor of the USFWS’s Klamath Falls Fish and Wildlife Office by March 1st every
year through March 2024.
