Arizona Wildlife Conservation Strategy

Sheep Creek COA

Sheep Creek is a medium priority management unit based on the extent of apparent suitable fish and aquatic species habitat. Priority should be given to additional surveys and inventory of the drainage, including Sheep Creek, South Fork Sheep Creek, and Copper Camp Creek. Surveys should include consideration of existing or potential fish barriers and consideration of non-native species removal and potential introductions of additional native species, possibly including roundtail chub.
