Conservationists come together to discuss successful efforts for salmon protection and what still needs to be done. On May 24 in Seattle, WA, Save Our Wild Salmon, along with several other environmental organizations, will celebrate the monumental removal of two salmon-killing dams in the Elwha River and discuss the campaign to remove the four lower Snake River dams. We will also show The Greatest Migration, a film that traces the incredible journey of Snake River salmon.
