today we went to the Spokane Tribal Fishery, Anderson Farm, and Roosevelt Lake. It was an crazy fun day. The fishery is not as large as the Yakama fisheries because treaty agreements were agreed upon here at a later time. The fishery program has 1000s of smolt growing in a single tank with more than 20 tanks. Although return rates are sort of low due to the dams. At Anderson Farm, they work for the wildlife program, both of these programs are about mitigation of the affects of climate change on the wildlife. Wildlife program does not really focus on the wildlife itself, but the enivironment they live in. The project they had going on was putting in fences for crops that are for the wildlife in the winter. They grow crops from spring to spring for the wildlife, such as corn. They told us that about 2 years ago, that 47 percent of the reservation was caught in a wild fire, that explains why when we were cruising, there was little amount of animals around. Only seen some deer and a bear. after all this knowledge gained, we went swimming/canoeing. it was awesome. me and coalby seen mike and cristy splashing some people, so we had to join in. some pictures of some friends and a .sturgeon
