Wild Ways: Why Keeping Washington's Habitat Connected Matters

[@Rigpasword]

Wow, outstanding film - so informative and inspiring. Conservation Northwest's work on wildlife connectivity is the main reason I've been a monthly donor for many years. I'm beginning to see wildlife connectivity as one of the most important conservation projects to support, the one project with a wide range of conservation benefits. This short film helped me understand just how important it is and how this single idea can bring enormous benefit to so many of our wildlife species. Thank you CNW!

It should be a priority in every ecosystem, an important aspect of public health.

Start the discussion around the root cause of the problem. Too many humans.

In a lot of ways dams made it easier for animals to cross the landscape. Before that the river was entirely wild!

[@brianstewart5632]

That is actually not true dams make it much harder, animals tend to move along the riraprian corridor and up and down river networks, dams fragment that movement and for critters that are smaller completely block passages. Animals moved freely until we built stuff period.

do you have any source to back up this claim I've never heard before? Dams definitely block salmon!

[@billt6116]

@@plant_trees_kg And they totally stopped deer from swimming upstream!! How dams have decimated the anual elk runs! Grouse, Rabbit, And raccoon hunting have never been the same since they put in that dam. Why they were just a dumb idea! We should all go back to using whale oil.

@@plant_trees_kg Rewatch the video and tell me where they were talking about salmon. I see some kind of furry animal with antlers in that thumbnail picture?... Is that a salmon? No wonder so many people watch them swim up stream!

​@@billt6116I am not even sure what you are trying to say, but dams decimate riparian ecosystems which 85 percent of critters use in this state. And since I am one of the experts in this video, you are going to provide some source for your claims if you want me to believe a word you are saying . And salmon are Wildlife and Dams stop them, plus there is no specific dam mentioned in the video either so not sure why that is your metric for deciding which facts we can consider .
