This is a moment that demands our attention. Not just as anglers, but as people who care about irreplaceable rivers, cultures, and the wild fish that shape them. Here’s why BC’s wild steelhead future should matter to all of us.

You know wild salmon are #keystonespecies. But do you know why that matters?

🦅 They feed hundreds of species. From bears and eagles to orcas and forest microbes, wild salmon deliver critical nutrients that support over 130 species across land, sea, and sky.

🌲 They fertilize forests. After spawning, their bodies decompose and enrich soils with nitrogen and phosphorus, boosting tree growth up to threefold in some regions.

🌍 They help fight climate change. Watersheds with healthy salmon runs store over 6.1 billion tons of carbon. That's about 3.5 years' worth of U.S. emissions!

🚰 They support clean water systems. By sustaining intact watersheds, salmon help regulate stream flows, reduce erosion and filter pollutants, protecting water sources for communities.

🐟 They fuel food security and cultural survival. Across the North Pacific, salmon sustain Indigenous communities, power local economies, and remain a critical wild food source.

If we lose wild salmon, we lose far more than a species. Join our mission by donating today. https://wildsalmoncenter.org/donate/
