Spawning Hope: Collaborating to Conserve a Maine MidCoast River

"We can not preserve the river - its salmon, and the fullness of its extended family of life... without protecting the headwaters that become the river itself". So a coalition of 26 organizations joins together to protect the riparian habitat of the Ducktrap River, of one of Maine's last native spawning streams for the endangered Atlantic Salmon. Part of the Maine Coast Protection Initiative's "Coastal Choices" package (www.protectcoastalmaine.org), produced by Melissa Paly, Cross Current Productions (www.crosscurrentproductions.com).
