"Pacific salmon evolved from a temperate freshwater species to one whose journey between fresh and salt water demonstrate a remarkable capacity for adaptation. Before their journey is complete, they will have swim upstream against raging currents, scaled steep falls, and escaped a phalanx of animal and human predators - all while undergoing the extraordinary physical changes which prepare them for spawning. In addition to describing the Pacific salmon's life cycle, author Adam Lewis also looks at the essential role salmon play in the Pacific region's economy and culture. Native stories reach back hundreds of years, and many communities depend on the abundance of salmon for their livelihood. Lewis shows how salmon survival continues to depend on the responsible stewardship of their precariously balanced and vulnerable habitat." Chapters include: Pacific salmon species; The miracle of the life cycle; Salmon and the web of life; Salmon and other wildlife; Traditional native fishing; Sport fishing; Enhancement; Conclusion. .
