“The Yukon River has a right to feed its own animals & its land.” Alaska Natives are fighting for the right to manage the Yukon River & save the remaining salmon stocks for future generations, before their way of life dies off with the salmon, Alyssa Choiniere reports.
Alaska natives have been custodians of Alaska wildlife as long as there have been people in Alaska. They are closer to the land and care for it's health and not what "profits" they can make. We've seen the devastation can be caused by just looking at what's in it for me.
