After viewing a few screens, you will notice that the query is providing you with 

 all streams where Westslope Cutthroat Trout are present, regardless of whether they 

 are pure populations, hybridized, or only potentially pure. Let's narrow our query to 

 only those populations that have been verified to be genetically pure. As a screen 

 finishes, press N to view the next screen, a message of End of Report will appear and 

 by pressing Enter or any key, you will return to the Main Menu. 



Press Enter from Step 1, select Fisheries from the Select A Category Menu and 

 you will return to the fisheries menu shown in Figure 10. Select species from the 

 species selection menu, move the cursor down to Fish Genetic Code and press Enter. 

 A pick-list like the one shown in Figure 15 will appear.
