We fight for regenerative systems that reflect our worldviews and an #IndigenousJustTransition!

During wildlife killing contests, people attempt to kill as many animals, often coyotes, as possible to win cash/prizes.
These “contests” are unscientific + wasteful.

🚨Repairs at the Winchester Dam (which hasn’t produced electricity for decades) have led to:
- Massive kill of Pacific lamprey
- Wet concrete spills into the flowing river
- Native fish blocked from moving to colder water upstream
