Grant may save Stillaguamish River chinook
The (Everett) Herald reported on the Stillaguamish Tribe’s project to recover South Fork Stillaguamish chinook.
The Seattle P-I, KOMO 1000 and The Olympian and others also picked up the story.
The Stillaguamish Tribe learned this week that it has received $634,044, which it will use to capture 15 to 20 male and female wild returning salmon each fall.
Starting next August, the plan is to collect the eggs and sperm, fertilize them and allow them to hatch and grow into fry at a tribal hatchery in Arlington.
