Greenback Cutthroat Trout: The Greenback Cutthroat Trout was named Colorado's state fish on March 15, 1994. You can tell it apart from other fish because it's light-colored body, dark spots that run down it's sides, and a scarlet-red stripe on it's throat. The Greenback Cutthroat Trout lives in lakes, small creeks, and rivers. It was once endangered because of the people that lived around the lakes and rivers. They threw debris into the lakes, rivers, and creeks, and that debris polluted the water, so the fish suffered badly.
