Spring marks one of the truly remarkable feats of nature we get to experience in Maine: the annual return of sea-run fish to our rivers and streams. One of the most iconic species is Atlantic salmon, an endangered fish with a long history and connection to our land and the Wabanaki Nations who have stewarded these places for time immemorial. In this episode, Colin speaks with state fisheries biologist Jennifer Noll about the heroic collaborative efforts to restore Atlantic salmon in Maine.
