Why do streams need to be stocked?

Streams are stocked for multiple reasons, mainly to restore or maintain fish populations. Some streams cannot support fish reproduction, so, stocking of fish into the stream can bolster the population to create a sustainable reproducing population. Other times stocking is done to maintain fish populations strictly for recreational uses, and must be done repeatedly.

How can isolation of a group result in new species?

After many changes evolve in a group of animals, individuals of that group can no longer mate with the rest of the species that remain unchanged. That is the definition of species: individuals that are able to breed among themselves but are not able to breed with other species. When a group of individuals is separated from the rest of their species for a long time, the individuals can evolve different traits. The longer the group is isolated from the rest of the species, the more likely it will evolve into a new species. One example of this has been seen in fish species in the lakes of Switzerland, Great Britain, and Scandinavia. Almost every lake has different forms, believed to have evolved from one species.
