It's refreshing to know there are people that care about our fisheries and the health of the land... Unfortunately, there is a tremendous amount of opposition in the removal of the Klamath River dams that have literally destroyed the salmon runs and have also polluted its water. Never the less, I thank you for all that you have done. The health of the environment should be a priority for all the people...
It's the way to go, great project! All my love to all these people from France where we're doing the same kind of restoration of wildlife and fish habitats. Take care all of you, may the next generations pass on what we've learned.
I'm glad to see you cherish all the native fish, not just the salmonoids. Also, providing backwater habitat for amphibians, birds, mammals, crayfish, turtles, etc. and not making the stream into a canal. Restoring the riparian zone trees that were harvested close to extinction by the early settlers.
Wow! Everybody wins, everybody participates, young and old. This is a great example of people and organizations coming together for the benefit of all, including future generations and the environment. 🙂
When you look at dirt streambanks don't make the mistake of not considering the dirt streambank as part of the environment of the stream. In Wisconsin the DNR the stream restoration crews thought only of erosion with dirt streambanks. Today, we have an Endangered female bumblebee that used to hibernate over the long, cold Wisconsin Winter in the dirt streambank. In our Wisconsin streams we had a keystone native crayfish who would build a burrow in the dirt streambank under the water. The Endangered Blanchard's Cricket Frog, the Endangered Hine's Emerald Dragonfly, and the Endangered Massasauga Rattlesnake would hibernate in the keystone native crayfish's burrow over the long, cold Wisconsin Winter. The bank swallows and kingfishers would make their nests in a hole in the dirt banks.
I wouldn't worry about not having dirt banks. Did you see those root wads stuck into the outside bends of the project? First good flood those same root wads will float up and break away leaving a high, massively eroded mud bank. I've seen this happen time and again on these types of projects. Total waste of money, but if you're looking to create high eroded mud banks, I don't know of anything that works better than those at making new ones.
Great Video! Diversity seems to be an Extremely important thing in Land and Water Management in So many Different ways. Its the Exact opposite of what Man has done to our Lands with Mono Culture Farming only one Crop which basically destroys the land and Soil and leads to Massive increase in use of Pesticides Herbicides and Fertilizers! Same thing with Straitening Rivers it Destroys the Diversity in the Rivers leads to Massive flooding and Rivers Dying! We need DIVERSITY to save our Planet!!
It’s great to see 3 and 4 gens on the ground. Think about Folk back East that fought in the Revolutionary War. How far back their families go. 1600’s. Wow
We can't imagine farming before the internal combustion engine the couple of generations before that had steam engines which was the birth of industrial farming. Before that it was all brutal animal and manpower.

Un beau projet en effet.

Right
What a wonderful project. Thanks to all the people involved in it.

❤❤wonderful piece of forward thinking! We need to look after Mother nature😊😊
It’s a great job your doing ,we should be doing more of this in New Zealand ,most of our rivers are a mess
yep
You people is amasing , love to se that kind of videoes !!

I loved this documentary. Thanks for sharing it.

Wow
Well a family tree wouldn’t stop at the 1600s
So adding pebbles to the bottom of lakes and streams stops the muddy residue from forming?
Yeah. Some of the sand stays behind, but the pebbles slow down the formation of mudpools. Pebbles are also good for fish eggs and algea

In the short time the Europeans have been here they sure made a mess of the land ,
