Lower Snake River Special with Eric Crawford of Trout Unlimited

This is an exciting episode because it is the first of a two part series about the Lower Snake River and the four dams preventing wild salmon and steelhead from living in their natural habitat. The Snake River is currently seeing its worst return of salmon and steelhead in over 200 years and the time to take action is now. Removal of the four dams on the Lower Snake is the only option left and Eric Crawford of TU explains it perfectly in this episode. We talked about why the dams need to be removed, how this will be done and how you can help. Here is the TU landing page to learn more about the issue and take action to help these wild salmon and steelhead populations. 

 

We hope you enjoy the show! If you have any questions, topics we should discuss, or people you want to hear from, shoot us an email at 5rivers@tu.org. Stay tuned for part two with the Youth Salmon Protectors coming soon!
