Spotting winter-run Chinook salmon spawning in the McCloud River is something locals haven’t seen in decades, but it just happened! Thanks to a big conservation push—egg planting, habitat restoration, and help from the Winnemem Wintu Tribe—these endangered fish are returning to their historic waters. This is more than just a win for wildlife; it’s a hopeful sign for the river’s health and the future of salmon in the face of climate change. What do you think—can these efforts keep the salmon comeback going? #Science #California #Salmon
