The Bonneville cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii utah) is a subspecies of cutthroat trout native to tributaries of the Great Salt Lake and Sevier Lake.[2] Most of the fish's current and historic range is in Utah, but they are also found in Idaho, Wyoming, and Nevada. This is one of 14 or so recognized subspecies of cutthroat trout native to the western United States.
In 1997, the Bonneville cutthroat was designated the official state fish of Utah, replacing the rainbow trout.[3] It was important to the Native Americans and the Mormon pioneers as a source of food.
