　・　In 2016, the Yurok Tribe had no commercial salmon season because there were not enough fish to meet subsistence and ceremonial needs. Selling fish, when there are so few, is antithetical to the Yurok Constitution, which mandates that the Tribe “manage and prudently harvest” salmon from the Klamath River. In January 2017, the US Department of Commerce officially declared the 2016 Yurok fishery a “commercial fishery failure”.

　・　Yurok officials said that the amount Chinook salmon predicted to return to the river in 2017 is around 11,000 fish. This would be the lowest number on record, according to the Yurok Tribe.

“This is a nightmare. I have never in my life dreamed that it could get this bad,” said Thomas P. O’Rourke Sr., Chairman of the Yurok Tribe. “This is devastating to our people, not only physically but emotionally. It’s saddening and hard to believe.”

　Yurok Tribe officials said that the 2017 allocation, which is set by the Pacific Fisheries Management Council, will most likely be 650 fish. That equates to one fish for every 10 tribal members.

　The tribe explained the cause of the low numbers is largely due to two consecutive juvenile fish disease outbreaks.
