Rivers of a Lost Coast

Professor Moyle on Salmon and Steelhead

UC Davis professor Peter Moyle was an invaluable addition to Rivers of a Lost Coast. Moyle a renowned fisheries biologist and educator provided us with numerous memorable quotes about current and historical issues that have plagued California's native salmon and steelhead.

Too many of his great anecdotes weren't able to fit into the final cut of the film so we've decided to share a few online. In this 2 minute clip, Moyle explains how the lack of interest in salmon and steelhead, by both the general public and California politicians, has helped produced poor, under-funded management practices.

Stick with this clip, Peter does a good job of explaining what many north coasters have felt for years.
