The Michigan Grayling
Published Oct 19, 2004
A small display at the fish hatchery where I work describes a now-extinct fish called the Michigan Grayling. Last summer, I had the following conversation with a tourist...
"Is the Grayling still extinct?"
"Yes, sir," I replied, "it no longer exists."
"Any thought of bringing it back?"
I don't think that's possible."
"Why not?"
"Because it's extinct."
