As long as water continues to flow, it provides a reliable habitat. However, if the spring runs dry and there is no neighbouring watercourse to which its inhabitants can migrate, and if a species is found only in this one location worldwide, a falling water level endangers not just a single population; it threatens the entire species.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">That is precisely what proved to be the downfall of the Charco Azul Pupfish. Groundwater was increasingly being extracted for agricultural purposes. The spring lost its supply, and the water body eventually dried up in the 1990s. Yet even a desert fish needs water, and no matter how adaptable a fish of the family Poecilidae may be, it is powerless against a spring that is running dry.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span> [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;136594&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;211499&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;145343&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;756398&#8243;][vc_column_text text_lead=&#8221;small&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;179121&#8243;]<em>Cyprinodon veronicae<\/em> at Tiergarten Sch\u00f6nbrunn \u00a9 Norbert Potensky[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;210659&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;680992&#8243;]Extinct \u2013 at least in the wild[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;289801&#8243;]<span data-contrast=\"auto\">That could have been the end of the story.
