Is The Future of California's Salmon Dam Demolition?
Watch the full first episode of America Outdoors with Baratunde Thurston here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUgcvbC8DyQ
For thousands of years, native tribes in California fished the Klamath River for salmon, their main food source. Starting a hundred years ago, the river was dammed and diverted—and today, the salmon fishery has dwindled as the fish encounter concrete obstacles along their journey upstream. Now, what seemed like a radical plan is coming true, as the dams are torn down and removed. What will such a dramatic transformation mean for the river, the fish, and the people who live here?
Baratunde Thurston investigates what happens when the dams are hauled away, introducing us to the Native tribes who fought to bring back the natural course of the river. We’ll hear from scientists who predict the project will be successful, and also homeowners who are worried that the changes will leave them high and dry. It’s a crucial debate as other communities start to think about letting their rivers run wild.
