About this listen

For millennia, the members of Katzie First Nation have seen salmon as family. So in 2018, when a landslide put an already endangered population of Chinook salmon in grave danger, they knew it was time to act. In this episode of This Is Wild, host Ziya Tong tells the story of the salmon in B.C.’s Upper Pitt River. Once home to a thriving population of Pacific salmon, numbers have been declining in the area for decades. But how did we reach the point where one landslide can endanger an entire population? And how do we secure a brighter future for these remarkable fish? To learn more about Pacific salmon, you can go to www.wwf.ca/thisiswild.
