UTAH — The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources shared photos this morning taken in 1908, depicting what a state-run fish hatchery looked like in Utah over 120 years ago.

“They show both the interior of the hatchery — with its troughs to house fish — as well as the exterior and the raceways. In the exterior photos, you can even see the warden’s home on the property,” said a statement from the UDWR.
