Description

The federal government denied a request to list spring-run Chinook salmon as endangered along the Oregon and Northern California coasts. Despite facing significant threats like dams and habitat loss, the National Marine Fisheries Service argued that fall-run salmon, which are more numerous, pose a greater risk to the overall population. Environmental groups are now considering state-level protections for these unique fish.
