River of Dreams (State of the Ocean's Animals)

On the Klamath River, the Native American Yurok Tribe fight for their livelihood -- salmon fishing -- as the enormous water needs for agriculture and hydroelectric power plants have driven the river into poor health and depleted the stock of salmon.

Matt Damon hosts "The State of the Ocean's Animals," from the long-running environmental television series JOURNEY TO PLANET EARTH.
