Surviving: The Story of the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout
The Pyramid Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout was declared extinct in the 1940’s as a result of a badly planned diversion dam on the Truckee River. Built with no consideration of the downstream Indigenous Peoples of the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and their cherished homeland, the dam desiccated the lake and destroyed the habitat of its native fish. However, the fish made a near impossible return, aided by the efforts of biologists, tribal litigators, and a carpenter.
This documentary was completed as part of a graduate study in media innovation at the University of Nevada, Reno. It premiered at the Wild and Scenic Film Festival in Nevada City, California in January of 2019.

Gentrification advice from Oakland to Reno
Просмотров 1197 лет назад
During one of Oakland's First Fridays Festivals, I caught up former Mayor Jean Quan as well as another interesting Oakland local to talk about gentrification and housing issues. It was interesting to hear their perspectives on the issues, being residents of a city like Oakland, while myself currently being a resident of a city fast encountering its own gentrification and housing issues.

In Eastern cultures, the family name is placed before an individual’s given name. In Western culture, the family name comes last, and is such commonly referred to as “the last name.” Autumn Harry’s last name was once somebody’s first. But if you mention the name Harry on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation, nobody thinks of the European rancher Autumn’s great-great-grandfather worked for. They ...

    It's my belief...that in ancient times the lake was joined with it's sister which is Eagle lake in Lassen county in the east. It also has the Lahotan...

    That tiny stream on the man's property... Lahontans seem to have oversized mouths yet they survived on a likely limited terrestrial diet in that little trickle of a stream. They were waiting for the big water to return or for someone to realize these were really survivors of the much larger lake variety.

    How are they keeping the original strain going, given that there's likely to be hybredesation between the two populations that the lake was restocked with?

      I'm sure they stopped using Summitt strain years ago....and they only focus on pilot peak strain.

    It's sad that those real genetics have been lost. Guess that's better than extinction. All states should do what is right eliminate non native species and restore native species. Remove all the damn dams..👍👍

    So much more could be talked about on land use and the topology of this unique place in the world that a person with even limited knowledge of streams, how water flows and the use of water could see looking at google earth how easily fragile water systems can change from flowing all year to intermittent remnants of past health due to really two major uses of water, the first many decades ago was watering cattle, many small ponds were made on owners property by the army corps of engineers to water cattle, it was a small boondoggle mostly done on tiny brooks that at the time seemed harmless then, but add that to ag which came later in the history of water use and you have a massive problem of which gnp is more important and who gets or needs more water and along come dams for ag, the rest is history, all those dashed creek lines on a topo map that depict intermittent streams most likely flowed most of the year, it's deceiving to think they did not.

    Is the pilot peak they speak of the pilot peak at the edge of the Salt desert on the Utah border?
