Our mission is to protect the world’s salmon strongholds.
We Protect Wild Salmon
Salmon Rivers Sustain Us
At Wild Salmon Center, our focus is the future of a species critical to watersheds, communities, economies, and our individual wellbeing.
Why Salmon Matter
The Foundation of Ecosystems
Wild salmon are a critical source of nutrients for wildlife and watersheds. Every year, they bring nutrients from the sea upstream and sustain more than 100 different species.
Critical Food Source for Communities
People across the North Pacific rely on subsistence salmon fishing. Without these wild runs, these communities would lose both a vital food source and traditional ways of life.
The Cornerstone of Local Economies
Fishing and outdoor recreation employs tens of thousands of people across the North Pacific. The survival of wild salmon also means the survival of coastal jobs.
Join the Movement
Once lost, wild salmon rivers are politically and economically expensive to reclaim.
