YudkowskyHOST
Do you think your Alter Zeide in Poland, his name was Sammy? There was no such thing as Sammy in Poland.
YudkowskyHOST
Salmon, maybe, but not Sammy.
YudkowskyHOST
Ta, I just grabbed.
YudkowskyHOST
You're right.
Heather HeyingHOST
But in June, there's no salmon.
Heather HeyingHOST
In February, there's no salmon, right? So you gotta, you gotta get it while the getting is good.
Heather HeyingHOST
Salmon are bringing this, you know, oily, fatty, rich food from the sea, and the bears gorge as much as they can, and they get as fat as they can, and then they, they basically sleep on salmon for the next many, many months.
Bret WeinsteinHOST
So to put this together, the streams in these habitats aren't capable of supporting salmon, right? So the salmon have solved this problem by farming the sea and returning to breed in these streams that couldn't support them.
Bret WeinsteinHOST
That creates an abundance for the bears, who have solved their problem by basically a refrigerator or cupboard strategy, where they collect the resource when it's available, they store it, which makes them clumsy and awkward, and they sleep through the worst of the seasons.
Uche OdiatuGUEST
Never.
Uche OdiatuGUEST
Salmon is good, but 80% of salmon that we eat now is farmed.
Uche OdiatuGUEST
Wild is better.
Uche OdiatuGUEST
You don't want the farmed salmon because it's full of antibiotics, which is killing your microbiome.
Dominic D’AgostinoGUEST
Yeah, I think so.
Dominic D’AgostinoGUEST
Salmon's a good alternative.
Dominic D’AgostinoGUEST
You could do salmon.
Dominic D’AgostinoGUEST
Uh, and tuna fish is too.
Sena WheelerGUEST
And so you want a fish with a shorter lifespan.
Sena WheelerGUEST
Salmon and black cod have a pretty short lifespan.
Sena WheelerGUEST
Halibut is one to watch for because halibut can have a very long lifespan.
Sena WheelerGUEST
They can live up to 250 years.
15 MINS LATER
Megan LyonsHOST
how many hours or days or whatever is it until it gets into the package in the freezer
Sena WheelerGUEST
i will start by telling what happened when my grandfather fished and i don't want to go on and on but back then they loaded the boat right that's how it was done and they would be gone maybe out 30 days they'd have ice on the boat but they load the boat and that the bottom of that fish was like really oh yeah 30 days what are we doing yeah and so when my dad fished it would be like week a week-long trip and and a lot of ice you know and so they would half load the boat say and you know week-long trip and bring it in and the consumer is demanding fresher and fresher so now rich fish is um Longline or salmon, they are out just a couple days.
Sena WheelerGUEST
Salmon is like, they fish from eight in the morning to eight at night, and then they are bringing that fish in.
Sena WheelerGUEST
And so it's not an accident that fish is better now.
David James DuncanNARRATOR
What to pray for as I wander tributaries stripped of their keystone species in just two purblind human generations.
David James DuncanNARRATOR
I pray thanks to Salmon and Steelhead for the treasure it's been to know their impossible strength via a rod that carried me across the species barrier as I played them.
David James DuncanNARRATOR
I pray thanks to have held, loved, and released each one.
David James DuncanNARRATOR
I pray thanks that their lovemaking has for millennia wed mountains to ocean as no other creature has or can or shall.

In many indigenous traditions, salmon are recognized as forming their own people or nation with a distinctive role to play in creation, and as such are frequently portrayed in indigenous art and stories.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
In Anishinaabe teachings, for example, fish are believed to be the holders of stars and of wisdom.

Salmon were a vital food source for the Haudenosaunee people who used to fish for them in Lake Ontario between September to November.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
At the end of the American Revolution, when colonial settlement along the shores of the lake intensified, salmon became an important food for settlers too, who often traded with indigenous fishers in the Kingston region.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
I quote, "...the appeal of salmon to potential frontier settlers was great.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
Some of their Pacific kin were introduced to Lake Ontario in the 1860s, but unlike the Atlantic salmon, these fish only spawn once and are not indigenous to the region.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
In 2006, a program was launched to try and reintroduce Atlantic salmon.
Claudia HirtenfelderHOST
It is colloquially known as the Bring Back the Salmon Restoration Program and is supported by the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters.
