		Shrimp are also found in some of the large overflow passages between drainage basins (e.g., Roaring River, which is a low level overflow route from the Turnhole Spring Groundwater Basin to the Echo Spring Groundwater Basin), populations at these locations are often small due to the fortuitous distribution caused by fast flow during flood events.
		Cave streams known to contain shrimp are very similar to each other and are a representation of the hydrology and geology of the area.
		This suggests that the shrimp is capable of retaining a viable reproductive status for very long periods of time in anticipation of an improvement in conditions (e.g., adequate food supply) to insure survival of the young, or to await fertilization by the male.

	Cave Fauna Conservation in North America
		The endangered Kentucky blind cave shrimp was thought to be extinct between 1967 and 1979 because it was not seen (Lisowski 1982, 1983).
		Some cave communities are highly dependent on cave crickets, which exit at night to scavenge on the surface; for example, different species of troglobitic beetles that prey on cricket eggs are found from Indiana to Alabama and Texas.
		The cave soil and fauna were brought in insulated containers to the mine and carefully placed in higher areas to avoid the minor flooding that sometimes occurs from seepage.

	Agenda for the White House Conference on Cooperative Conservation - Overall Agenda
		To address this challenge, more than 1,400 ranch families have partnered with wildlife conservationists to protect over 522,000 acres of wetland and grassland habitat in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota.
		Cave habitats are home to some of the Nation's most interesting, valuable and imperiled species.
		This session highlights two sites where innovative partnerships are conserving these underground ecosystems: Texas' Bracken Bat Cave, which shelters the largest remaining concentration of mammals on Earth, and two caves systems in Madison County, Alabama, where the Alabama cave shrimp is teetering on the brink of extinction.
