      True. Now they will be ruled by Asians; Chinese, Indians from India, ETC. Thanks to PROGRESSIVE politicians and their Open Border policies and their 'legal' programs of entry. Good job.

    Welp 1000 yrs in the future our children deal w/a collapsed environment they can look back and thank the Industrial Age for the tire irons they use to beat each other over the head in the fight for scraps of food and contaminated puddles of water. At least they'll go 1 more day w/o hunger and thirst until some disease/injury we shrug off w/modern medicine takes them out.

    It’s make or break for the fate of salmon in California. People don’t do something now we will loose our glorious king salmon. We’ve already lost our silver salmon population in California and the spring salmon runs are all but gone completely. People need to wake up.

    I'm surprised that they didn't build a salmon run bridge up the dam. most of the money was provided by the state anyway.

    Great story. This is a on going effort for those salmon and their Fisheries . The salomn are one of the greatest impact to the world and its ecosystems there is no denying the health of a fisherie and the health of the world, that work together. Its so ironic that they are bringing salmon from New Zealand back to the states , its also interesting that South America has a large healthy population of salmon but its unfortunate because China, is involved in investing billions to dam those river system up which brings up the situation at kiswick dam , those dams only hinder and block fish from reproducing to their full potential , those fish have such a difficult experience as it is . The drought, the population of humans expanding with growth and development . The agriculture industry that takes water and dump waste water back into those river systems . I have over time witnessed in my own backyard the decline of salmon. They are 4 major river systems that have taken a huge hit in California, Mokelumne, Tuolumne Stanislaus and the Merced all a major threat. I remember in the 80s walking into those rivers and getting hit by passing salmon over and over by the huge pods fish, some reaching 30lbs or more . Today your lucky to see 15 or 20 fish in any of those systems the fish now may reach maybe 8lb to 12lb . Im grateful for these indigenous people being recognized and pushing for a better future for the future of that fisheries. There are methods to provide a healthier solution. Seaweed Farms on the outskirts of the Bay Area, possibly oyster farms along the estuaries and rivers to clean out the waste production that comes from the agriculture industry like herbicides , pesticides and hormones that all dump into those systems, to help promote cleaner water by extracting those toxins. The other issue that could change is the regulations in California, now that they have opened up the fisheries to year round which, i feel is a big mistake, the lower rivers for the best , are still close during, oct to January for the spawn . So as a concerned person, In my region i check the surveys and restock them for the fish and game department to record all data. Just to make a point of my interest. Salmon-Bear

    Assuming 1% return rate, let’s catch 16 fish in a couple of years.
