  • Someday, Tahiti Treat and Pep Chew might make a comeback, but the wild salmon won't, once they are gone. The reason why I mentioned the treats is if you bought them when you were a kid, you would know what its like to have a craving for something you cannot get anymore. Do you have a craving for something you cannot get anymore?

    Ta'Kaiya never had those things but if the wild salmon disappear, she will know that feeling too.

  • I have seen jellyfish in the ocean by New Brighton Park, some years ago. By the grain elevators. I do not go there too often. Only been there three times in my life.

  • @MyVideoStop yes we should send two spirit bears to them...then they would have to ensure they have what they need to live.
