Dana Wilson, a Lummi fisherman, believes that the more salmon disappear, the more Coast Salish peoples lose their knowledge of the salmon, and fishing, as a way of life. Dana also believes that the State of Washington sees habitat restoration as an expensive endeavor, and that we all need to push ourselves to make sacrifices for salmons’ future. David Montgomery, a UW professor of geology, wrote the book, King of Fish: The Thousand-Year Run of Salmon, which details the historical events that hinder salmon conservation. His knowledge of geomorphology casts an image of the salmon that is both resilient and under threat as salmon management is ignored in our changing landscape. Dana and David believe that the time to do something for the salmon is now.  David Montgomery UW Profile: https://www.ess.washington.edu/people/profile.php?pid=montgomery-- david  A Bellingham Herald Article featuring Dana Wilson:  http://www.bellinghamherald.com/news/local/article44514417.html
