Hatchery and Wild

Sara Thompson , Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, Portland, OR
Sport, tribal and commercial fishes depend on strong salmon and steelhead runs, but rarely do they agree on how to achieve those runs and too often work against each other. Hatchery AND Wild showcases the ecological, economic, and social importance of Pacific Northwest hatcheries as well as the science surrounding the potential impacts they have on wild fish. It explores ways that we can put aside our differences in order to work toward our common goal of healthy and abundant salmon returns.
