Canada, U.S. suspend fishing of Yukon River Chinook salmon for seven years
Canada and the United States are suspending all fishing for Canadian-origin Yukon River Chinook salmon for seven years in an attempt to protect the dwindling species.
A statement from Fisheries and Oceans Canada says since the 1980s the Chinook population has declined to less than 10 per cent of its historical average of 150,000 adult salmon originating from the Canadian portion of the watershed. The governments have agreed to work on habitat and stock restoration activities and support research to better understand the declines of Chinook salmon.
