“Bristol Bay is the last place on earth that salmon thrive. We should care about that as a society.”
“We can talk about the economics of the commercial fishery and the sport fishery all day. But when it comes down to it, this is an indigenous rights issue that all people should be concerned about.”
“We’ll do whatever it takes. Whether it’s in the courtroom, whether it’s laying in front of bulldozers. Our people will do whatever it takes to protect this place.” — Alannah Hurley, Executive Director of the United Tribes of Bristol Bay
