Yurok biologist has whirlwind couple of weeks

BY RODNEY HARWOOD Country Media

CRESCENT CITY – It’s been a busy couple of weeks for Yurok tribal citizen and Senior Fisheries Biologist for the Yurok Tribe of California Keith Parker.

He sat in his living room talking with a New York Times reporter answering questions and addressing issues pertinent to Northern California and fish management on the Klamath River.

He spent time out on the river with the Times photographer as the team put together a presentation that will run not only in the New York City daily, but another piece entitled “The scientists watching their life’s work disappear,” will run in the New York Times Sunday Magazine with a circulation of 6 million readers.

Then on Oct. 19-21, at the 2023 American Indian Science Engineering Society National Conference (AISES) in Spokane, Wash., he and the largest audience in conference history (3,500) watched a five-minute video of his work.

AISES is a national nonprofit organization focused on increasing representation of Indigenous peoples of North America and

Del Norte boys’ soccer ends long drought Biologist:

Impact of climate change is growing

For The Triplicate

Thanks to some outstanding defense this fall, the Del Norte boys soccer team ended a 28year championship drought.

The Warriors were crowned H-DNL champions on Wednesday (Oct. 25) after a 2-0 over McKinleyville in Crescent City, securing just the second-ever league title for the program and a first since 1995.

And they achieved it with some stellar defense, posting shutouts in eight of their final nine games, including five straight to close out league play.

Senior goalkeeper Isidro Montanez and his defense have not allowed a goal in more than 440 minutes of play, last conceding in a 1-1 tie against Fortuna on Oct. 7.

“I am very proud of my boys

BY RODNEY HARWOOD Country Media

Yurok Tribe of California Senior Fisheries Biologist Keith Parker paused for a moment, collecting his thoughts on what’s going on, not only in his world, but the world around him, as he focused his thoughts on the topic of climate change and the climate crisis.

As a scientist, the Yurok tribal member is a member of the Klamath River Technical and Trinity River Hatchery Technical Teams.

He has conducted numerous fisheries biology, hydrology, and river ecology research projects in Alaska, Washington, Idaho and California and was recently named the 2023 Professional of the Year for technical excellence by the American Indian Science Engineering Society National Conference (AISES).

As a Northern California tribal member, Parker has family in the Karuk, Hupa and Tolowa communities and remembers the teachings of the elders about the connection to the earth and its inhabitants.

His is a message one of past ties to present lives and the dangers surrounding destructive habits people have taken for granted.

Warriors win thriller to stretch Big 4 run

BY RAY HAMILL

For The Triplicate

The Del Norte Warriors secured at least a share of a fourth straight league championship in football in dramatic circumstances on Friday night (Oct. 27).

They had to dig deep, scoring a pair of unanswered touchdowns in the fourth quarter on the way to an 18-17 come-from-behind victory over St. Bernard’s at Mike Whalen Field.

But with their backs to the wall and the championship on the line, the players responded with a gutsy finish.

And it was the seniors on senior night that led the way.

“We stayed with what we do, and we grounded it out,” Del Norte head coach Darren LaFazio said. “Our seniors stepped up. They really wanted this win.

“We needed to win this game and they knew it, and they played as hard as they could.”

The victory was the Warriors’ 15th straight in conference play dating back to the 2018 season, and it was their seventh straight over the Crusaders.

The Warriors went undefeated in conference on the way to championships in 2019, 2021 and 2022.

There was no league held in the COVID-shortened season in the spring of 2021.

With Friday’s win, Del Norte improved to 2-0 in the Big 4 with one game remaining and 6-2 overall.

Also on Friday night, Fortuna beat Eureka 38-14, leaving both the Huskies and Crusaders 1-1 in conference.

With one round of league games remaining, Del Norte can win the league pennant outright with a win at Fortuna on Friday night.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service awards over $800,000 to five Tribes in California, Nevada

Across the nation, more than $6.4 million in Tribal Wildlife Grants will be awarded to Tribes to advance shared conservation goals and natural heritage

Tribal interests and needs, we can improve and enhance fish, wildlife and natural and cultural resources for the benefit of all.”

The Tribal Wildlife Grants Program helps fulfill federal trust responsibilities and achieve Tribal sovereignty by expanding Tribes’ natural resource management capacity. Since its inception in 2003, the competitive grant program has awarded more than $118 million to Native American and Alaska Native Tribes, providing support for 662 conservation projects.

The Biden-Harris administration’s America the Beautiful initiative is a locally led, voluntary conservation and restoration effort that aims to address the nature and climate crises, improve equitable access to the outdoors, and strengthen the economy.

This effort calls upon local, state and federal leaders to honor Tribal sovereignty and support the priorities of Tribal nations when making decisions related to sustainable land management and the conservation of natural, cultural and historical resources.

Tribal communities hold some of the most important conservation lands in the United States. Over 100 million acres of habitat are influenced or managed by the nation’s 574 federally recognized Tribes, who have stewarded their lands since time immemorial.

Tribal Wildlife Grants help Tribes develop increased management capacity, improve and enhance relationships with conservation state partners, address cultural and environmental priorities, and help train the next generation of conservationists by engaging Native students interested in fisheries, wildlife and related fields of study.

Some grants have been awarded to support recovery efforts for federally listed threatened and endangered species.

California commercial Dungeness crab fishing season delayed The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) announced a delay in the season opener for California commercial Dungeness crab fishing off the Central and Southern Coast to protect whales from entanglement. The decision is based on a combination of excessive humpback whale entanglements in California Dungeness crab gear over the last three years and high numbers of recent humpback whale sightings off the central coast according to CDFW’s Risk Assessment and Mitigation Program criteria. The recreational Dungeness crab fishery will open statewide on November 4; however, recreational crab traps will not be allowed for the Central Coast (Fishing Zones 3 and 4) due to the high abundance of whales.

According to the National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), roughly 75 percent of reported whale entanglements are fatal as whales can drag the heavy fishing gear for months, hindering their ability to dive and feed.

This can result in malnutrition, starvation, infection to damaged flukes or tails and even severed appendages and drowning. According to CDFW, there have been 15 confirmed whale entanglements — including humpback whales and gray whales — reported off California this year, four of which were confirmed in California commercial Dungeness crab gear. As of September, 23 whales have been confirmed entangled off the West Coast in 2023.

The population of humpback whales that breeds in Central American/Southern Mexico — one of two humpback populations that migrates here to feed off the Califor-

nia coast — is endangered with extinction under the federal Endangered Species Act. According to NMFS, these humpbacks are being seriously injured or killed by fisheries and ship strikes at a rate well above levels that impact the health of the population. Humpback whales are also being caught in numbers that greatly exceed a three-year average impact score as defined in California’s Risk Assessment Mitigation Program for the commercial Dungeness crab fishery that triggers necessary management action.

Due to number of entanglements, NMFS is proposing to upgrade the California commercial Dungeness crab fishery to a Category I fishery— a designation reserved for fisheries that have a frequent likelihood of seriously injuring or killing marine mammals.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title

to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 866-266-7512 or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub. com using the file number assigned to this case 23004776-1 CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 866-266-7512 or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub. com using the file number assigned to this case 23004776-1 CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Huffman, Merkley Introduce Bold Legislation to Take on the Growing Plastic Pollution Crisis Last week, U.S. Representative Jared Huffman (D-CA-02) teamed up with Oregon’s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley to introduce the bicameral Break Free from Plastic Pollution Act—the most comprehensive plan ever introduced in Congress to address the plastic pollution crisis that is poisoning our air, water, and land, and disproportionately impacting communities of color and low-income Americans.

The legislation would reduce plastic production, establish ambitious recycling targets, and protect frontline and fenceline communities from the health and environmental burdens of toxic emissions from the plastics industry through reducing production and by changing the incentives of the industry.

The bill would shift the burden of cleanup to the corporations that produce the plastics so they have financial motivation to end the burning and dumping; establish a nationwide deposit return system to address beverage container waste; support reusable and refillable systems; and strengthen environmental justice protections by including the Protecting Communities from Plastics

Act. “Plastic pollution isn’t just a problem for our oceans and climate – it’s a massive environmental injustice. Communities are overburdened with plastics’ toxic air and water emissions and the false promises of so-called chemical recycling,” said Rep. Huffman. “Worse, Big Oil is aggressively promoting even more plastic – it’s how they plan to keep us addicted to planet-killing fossil fuels even as we transition to a clean energy future.

We can’t let this happen.

Our bill tackles the plastic pollution crisis head on, addressing the harmful climate and environmental justice impacts of this growing fossil fuel sector and moving our economy away from its overreliance on single use plastic. We must start putting people and communities over these corporations’ greed.”

“Plastic pollution is a public health crisis that can only be solved with bold actions,” said Sen. Merkley. “Additionally, plastics produce greenhouse gas emissions and release toxins throughout their entire life span, and its frontline communities who are disproportionately ex-

posed to the dangers from plastic production. And downstream plastics are creating a massive pollutions problem for our rivers and oceans. The Break Free from Plastic Pollution Act is the boldest legislation yet to address this crisis with the seriousness it deserves.”

Many steps to tackle the plastic pollution crisis are already widely popular with the American people.

Public polling shows that two-thirds of Americans believe that businesses that produce or use plastics in their products should pay for collecting, sorting, and recycling plastics; 86% of Americans support requiring new plastic to contain at least some recycled material; and four-in-five Americans support phasing out certain non-recyclable plastics altogether.

In recognition of Americans’ growing concerns about plastic consumption and waste management, the Break Free from Plastic Pollution Act would provide national leadership with tools and a path forward to reduce the amount of wasteful plastic produced and reform our broken waste and recycling systems. The bill would shift the burden of cleanup

and waste management to where it belongs— on the corporations that produce this waste—by: • Requiring big corporations to take responsibility for their pollution.

• Establishing aggressive source reduction targets for single-use plastic products and beverage containers.

• Creating a nationwide beverage container refund program, which has been successful in 10 states.

• Reducing and banning certain single-use plastic products that are not recyclable.

• Establishing grant programs to support reusable and refillable products.

• Pressing pause on new plastic facilities until critical environment justice and health protections are put in place.

This year’s legislation is strengthened by including: new mandates for performance targets, including reducing single-use plastics and requiring all single-use beverage containers and packaging to be reusable, recyclable or compostable; stronger language for the elimination of toxic substances in beverage containers and robust requirements for incorporating post-consumer

recycled content into beverage containers; stronger language for prohibiting the use of toxic substances; and strengthened environmental justice requirements for facilities, including community consultation and more stringent fenceline monitoring requirements.

“Plastics are made of fossil fuels combined with PFAS, phthalates, heavy metals and other toxic chemicals. They are produced in some of the nation’s most overburdened and underserved communities, blanketing neighborhoods in carcinogenic air pollution. Many plastics are used for mere minutes, but their impact can leave a mark for centuries to come.

Plastics are piling up in our landfills and oceans, incinerators are turning waste plastics into toxic air pollutants, and consumer products are leaching chemicals into our bodies.

Microplastics are found in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink. They have been found deep in human lungs and in the bodies of newborn babies. By restricting the most problematic single-use plastic products, investing in reuse and refill systems, and insisting

on robust protections for frontline communities, the Break Free from Plastic Pollution Act seeks to protect people at every stage of the plastics supply chain and to set this country on a healthier and more sustainable path forward. We applaud its reintroduction and thank Senator Merkley and Representative Huffman for their leadership on this issue,” said Dominique Browning, Director and Co-Founder, Moms Clean Air Force.

“Plastic pollution is petrochemical pollution and it’s hurting families right here in the United States,” said Heather McTeer Toney, Executive Director of Beyond Petrochemicals.

The Break Free from Plastic Pollution Act is endorsed by nearly 100 groups.

The legislation is cosponsored by U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (DCT), Cory Booker (DNJ), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Edward J. Markey (D-MA), Patty Murray (D-WA), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Peter Welch (D-VT), Ron Wyden (D-OR); and by many representatives.

We finally IN MY VIEW A funny thing happened have a speaker

By CONGRESSMAN JARED HUFFMAN The good news is that after an unprecedented 22 days without a Speaker of the House, Congress is open again. House Republicans finally resolved their internal chaos and dysfunction and selected Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana to be the new Speaker. It is shameful and inexcusable that more than three weeks of Congress’ time was wasted on this intra-party drama, but at least it’s over.

As we try to get Congress back to work, many of my constituents are rightfully interested in knowing more about Speaker Johnson, a little-known member of Congress who now not only leads the House of Representatives but is second in line to the Presidency.

I know Speaker Johnson to be smart and affable, and I certainly hope he will be a better leader than his predecessor Kevin McCarthy. But I must also candidly share my concerns about what his sudden ascendancy to the Speakership could mean for our country.

Speaker Johnson is an avid Christian Nationalist with little experience in leading, but a long track record of MAGA extremism. For those who care about governing and democracy, and certainly anyone who values the secular character of our government, it’s important to understand that the new Speaker – and the House Republican conference that chose him as their standardbearer – reflects the most extreme political agenda we’ve ever seen from a majority party in Congress. Speaker Johnson’s record includes:

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a 1966 musical comedy starring Zero Mostel about palace intrigue and deception where things don’t go at all according to plan. Observing local politics and the way people interact with our elected officials sometimes reminds me of this comedy of errors.

Find The Humor A funny thing happened on my way to the Tri-Agency Economic Development Authority meeting (9/28). As I walked down the hallway, a man approached me and handed me some papers. I thought that it was information for the meeting, but nope.

The front page said, “Linda Sutter v Tri-Agency EDA.” I immediately declared that I am not on this board and passed the papers back. He asked, “Aren’t you Wes White?”

“Notice and petition for writ of mandate, injunctive relief and declaratory relief for violation of the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Records Act, Article 1 & 3(b)(1) of California Constitution, waste of public funds CCP526(a), breach of fiduciary duty, and order to show cause why Tri-Agency should not be dissolved under Government Code 6510.”

Sutter is seeking a writ of mandate which is a court order to a governmental body, or government official, requiring that they perform an act or cease to act where the court finds that an official law, duty or judgment requires them to do so. This is a convoluted case that I will gladly leave for the courts to resolve.

Exhibit B I have not read every document, but it is an impressive pile of paper, with over 140 pages including the petition for writ of mandate, exhibits and attachments.

There is a proper venue to sort this out and I will not comment on the merits of this case, with one exception.

Imagine my surprise when I was scanning through the legal papers and I discovered that one of my columns, “The People Who Show Up” (3/2/23) is Exhibit B. This is offered as evidence that the public was excluded from attending a specific Tri-Agency board meeting.

In my column I wrote about the people that showed up for a Tri-Agency meeting in the middle of a blizzard.

This was intended as a story about dedication to duty. Sutter misinterprets my words and extrapolates an erroneous conclusion that the doors were locked so that the public could not

attend. This is not accurate.

Snowstorm Sutter contends that, “The Tri-Agency should have reposted their meeting to another date after the County closed their building for the day due to snow. Instead, the County led people to believe there would be no Tri-Agency meeting because the Government building was closed.”

Sutter heard on the radio the county offices were closed and assumed the Tri-Agency meeting was cancelled. It was not. Regardless, there is no legal requirement to notify people if a meeting is cancelled nor is there a practical way to do this.

The only way to know for sure is to show up. I did.

She did not.

When I arrived early, the doors were locked. After calling Tri-Agency Chair Wes White to confirm that the meeting was still on, I knocked on the door and was let in. The door was unlocked and open before the meeting was scheduled to start and was left open for the duration of the meeting.

Civic Rights Linda Sutter has standing to file a legal challenge if she thinks her rights have been abridged or laws have been broken.

Under California law, local agencies must establish written guidelines for public access to documents and to post these guidelines at their offices. The public has a right to inspect legislative records.

Sunshine laws are regulations requiring public disclosure of government agency meetings and records.

Sunshine laws require specific government agencies to maintain transparency and disclose their activities to the public.

This includes advance posting of the meeting agendas in a public place.

All our government agencies should commit to comply with legal mandates for open and transparent government.

It is worth noting that Tri-Agency has improved lately.

Over the last two meetings, County and City staff have stepped up to help since Tri-Agency has no staff. Agendas were posted and minutes taken.

There Is A Cost Win or lose there will be a cost for Tri-Agency and the member agencies to defend against this litigation. Tri-Agency has hired local attorney Robert Black who is a veteran government lawyer. The attorneys for the City, County and Harbor will have to spend time on this. There will be a cost to the local courts.

If she wins, Sutter is requesting that the court enter judgment against Tri-Agency, “ordering payment of all court and attorney fees associated with this action.” If she does not prevail, should she be required to pay the costs incurred by the government agencies that are being sued? That might be just.

Andrew Carpenter hunting licenses are distributed in state-run lotteries. While most are reserved for local residents, some can be allotted to non-resident hunters.

Hunter numbers are down 8% in New Mexico, but the state still reserves 16% of its licenses for non-residents.

Contrast that with Colorado, where as many as 35% of the licenses go to out-of-state hunters. Colorado also sells unlimited “over-the-counter” licenses that do not require a lottery entry to purchase. Policies like this have contributed to a whopping 26% more hunters in the state than there were in 2008.

It’s not surprising that many local hunters resent

losing hunting opportunities to visitors. “Many residents depend on hunting for food,” said Rebecca Bradley, a bow hunter from Colorado. “I’d prefer that the state reserve licenses for locals that want them before setting any aside for non-residents.”

Consider Montana, where hunter numbers are up almost 4%. Big Sky Country sold slightly fewer hunting licenses to residents from 2008 to 2021, but non-residents bought 35% more licenses over that same period. With more out-of-state hunters pressuring game, some residents tell me they’d rather stay home.

“The non-resident (hunter) numbers have gone up like crazy,” said Joe Perry, a Montana rancher and founding member of the Montana Sportsmen Alliance. “That excludes residents.”

Though hunting tourism may discourage some locals from hunting, It’s a windfall for state wildlife agencies while subsidizing license prices for residents.

tags for non-residents, Western states such as Colorado, Montana, Idaho, New Mexico, and Wyoming receive more than 60% of their license revenue from non-resident hunters.

That’s because non-residents pay so much more to hunt than residents do.

The Wyoming Legislature recently passed a bill to increase certain kinds of non-resident elk licenses from $576 to $1,258, while a resident pays just $57.

Increasing costs for hunting licenses and what many say is crowding in the outback may finally reduce the ranks of outof-state hunters. “It’s a big expense, and you don’t get to experience the wilderness if the mountains are overrun with hunters,” said Rollefson, the hunter from Wisconsin. “I’d rather go less often but have a higher-quality hunt, with fewer hunters and more animals.”

Parker was recognized as the AISES 2023 Professional of the Year for Technical Excellence.

“It was a record turnout at Spokane, so that was special. It’s been a lot of hard work,” said Parker, a molecular biologist who helps monitor the Klamath River’s fish stocks as part of the Klamath River Technical Team.

“The New York Times article came out. Then in a separate article that just came out digitally, they did another article talking about scientists that are hoping to help fix climate change for their Sunday magazine. So, it’s been a hell of a week.”

Growing up, Parker bore witness his grandfather leading protests of federal bans on tribal fishing rights, ironically, for water he is now responsible for, co-stewarding the Klamath River’s 44 miles through the Yurok reservation.

His research has been published in the science journal, Molecular Ecology. In 2018, he discovered two new previously undiscovered subspecies of Pacific lamprey — a jawless fish that looks like an eel — one that matures in the river and another that matures in the ocean.

“I used Yurok words to describe them because of the importance they are

of the problems that are happening locally. The fire and the drought is all directly linked to climate change,” said Parker, who just collaborated in a New York Times article (Oct. 25) with scientists helping to address climate change.

A separate article appeared in a New York Times Sunday Magazine (Oct. 29) had 50,000 likes in the first few hours.

“The fire shut this entire county down. We were completely disabled.

for our people. Kewsween means river, and the ocean maturing lamprey was named Tewol, which is the Yurok word for ocean,” he explained. “The lamprey has great cultural and historical value to Pacific Northwest tribes.”

He has also performed a great deal of genetics work on the Klamath salmon in collaboration with the University of California-Santa Cruz.

All that aside, having the New York Times reporter and photographer sitting in his living room while his son Beau shot some photos of the process is a memory they will share for a long, long time, he said.

“I was humbled and at the same times excited, because every time these things happen, it gets the word out to more people about the plight of our salmon and our fisheries here on the West Coast, specifically Del Norte County,” said Parker, who co-stewards harvest management on the lower 44-miles of the Klamath River eight-months of the year and conducts genetic analysis of returning Trinity River Hatchery salmon in collaboration with UC Santa Cruz the rest of the time “We had a full salmon closure this year in the ocean and the river. They shut down the rock fishing season, so all the local fishermen can’t fish the shores. We have a lot of fishery issues because of degraded rivers and poor ocean conditions. So, if I can get in front of that many people (through the

“It might not happen in my lifetime, but maybe in my kids’ lifetime. We can’t just keep extracting and extracting,” said Parker, who is a lecturer at Cal Poly Humboldt and UC-San Diego SCRIPPS Institution of Oceanography.

“People don’t understand it is all connected.

The salmon come up the river to spawn. The predators catch the fish and drag them on shore to feed. The Redwood trees are salmon fed. We’ve taken core samples that have ocean nutrients. How in the world

New York Times), then I can educate more people about these problems.

Hopefully, more people are going to be thinking about solutions.”

Parker, who also has family in the Karuk, Hupa and Tolowa communities, is a regular guest speaker, discussing climate change and drought on salmon populations.

He has conducted numerous fisheries biology, hydrology, and river ecology research projects in Alaska, Washington, Idaho and California. He received a BS degree in Fisheries Biology (2015) and a MS degree in Natural Resources (2018) from Cal Poly-Humboldt, with a thesis on conservation genetics.

“So, I’m optimistic that we’ll find a way around climate change and drought.”

would their be ocean nutrients 1,000 miles inland if it wasn’t in the bodies of those fish?”

Parker attributes this break in the cycle that is contributing to wildfires, flooding in some areas, droughts in others along with other natural dilemmas.

“There’s other ecosystem services that salmon provide. We’re feeling the effects now with all these huge fires,” he continued.

“I see a lot of the fires account for the lack of salmon delivery.

“When a 40-50 pound salmon spawns and dies, think of all the nutrients that gets absorbed into the

ground. It’s been going on for millions of years, leading to these massive trees.”

As a scientist, Parker is a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow and a Robert & Patricia Switzer Foundation Fellow.

He is active in the Corvallis Research Lab, the Klamath River Technical and Trinity River Hatchery Technical Teams and on the CSU Presidents’ Native American Advisory Committee.

But he also remembers a time when his grandfather showed him the ways of the people that have been passed down from genera-

and the Smith River for thousands of years. Having that background in modern genic analysis, using modern scientific tools, make a really powerful combination to help solve a lot of the problems that we have.”

He is quick to point out nature has been around for a long, long time. But the billions of inhabitants are grinding away and the cycle observed for thousands of years.

“We really have to try and wrap our mind around that creatures, including humans, have lived together for generations,” Parker said. “We’ve lived through ice ages. We’ve lived through volcanoes, massive earthquakes, tsunamis and yet we persist.

“So, I’m optimistic that we’ll find a way around climate change and drought.”

tion to generation.

His grandfather led protests of federal bans on tribal fishing rights, ironically, for water he is now responsible for, co-stewarding the Klamath River’s 44 miles through the Yurok reservation.

Not only is the earth connected, he is connected with through past ties to present lives, Parker explained.

“It’s not by accident, but by nature’s design, that these large, massive trees are right here by Mill Creek where salmon come every year,” he explained.

“The trees have a symbolic relationship with the salmon. In return, these trees provide shade to the creek, bank stability with roots in the ground to prevent eroding.

Soccer From page 1

for this great achievement and thank them for all the time and effort they put in to make this happen,” said head coach David Sanyaolu, whose team has outscored its opponents by a combined 42-1 over the last nine games.

Even more impressive, this is a junior-heavy team that many people around the league felt was a year from challenging for a league title and a team that lost its leading scorer form a year ago, when junior Mario Ledezma suffered a season-ending injury just before the season opener.

Sophomore Deken Hanks has filled that void with 14 goals.

“His development has been amazing,” Sanyaolu said.

Another key to the success is the chemistry the players have built on the field and the team is playing more as a unit than before, according to the coach, with “everybody chipping in.”

It all really began when the Warriors gave up two late goals in a 2-1 loss to Arcata on Sept. 23. That’s when something clicked with the players.

“They have turned it around since then,” the coach said. “Their men-

tality changed after that game. They changed their attitude and had a desire to be better.”

Central defenders Alexis Ortiz and Greyson Franklin have anchored the defense all season, alongside fullbacks Jacob Ramsey and David Aguilar, the latter of whom is just a freshman and has been “spectacular,” the coach said.

Defensive midfielders Lyon Rigden and Saxon Taylor, each of whom scored in a 3-0 win at Eureka on Monday (Oct. 23), have both also played a pivotal role in the suffocating defense.

“We have two good central defensive midfielders that shield the back line and also create offensive opportunities,” Sanyaolu said.

Outside midfielders Pedro Garcia-Maravilla and Brandt Pennington have also played key roles and have done a good job setting up opportunities for Hanks.

The Warriors also had a more challenging run-in than any of the other three contenders for the league title — Arcata, Fortuna and Eureka — but they held their nerve down the stretch.

Monday’s win at Eureka followed a 2-0 win at Arcata just two days before, a victory that eliminated the Tigers from contention.

Young Condor Receives Treatment for Lead Poisoning Earlier this month, Yurok condor A6 (Menew-kwek’, “I am bashful or shy”), along with several other condors in the new population, fed on a poacher-killed elk within Redwood National Park in the Bald Hills of Humboldt County. In a routine autumn health check conducted a few days later, five out of eight birds were found to have concerning levels of lead in their blood. For seven of these birds, this event was likely their first time accessing food not provided by the Northern California Condor Restoration Program (NCCRP), based on the intensive daily monitoring. Due to the timing, visual observations and other factors, the illegally killed elk is believed to be the source of the toxin uncovered during the birds’ health assessment.

Of the five birds, Me-new-kwek’ (Condor Recovery Program Studbook 1101: wing tag designation A6) was the only one whose lead level came back higher than the identified treatment threshold, warranting immediate medical intervention for lead poisoning.

While in hand, lead chelation therapy was initiated on Me-new-kwek’ at the NCCRP’s Condor Release and Management Facility in Northern California. The condor was transported the following day to Sequoia Park Zoo (SPZ) and received a series of x-rays to determine if there were lead fragments still in his digestive tract. The scan came back clear, indicating that what he ingested would have been dust-like in composition. After completing one round of chelation therapy at SPZ (5 days of injections and fluids), his blood lead level had decreased to below the treatment threshold, and Me-new-kwek’ was returned to the NCCRP flight pen. He will remain in the pen to improve his health before release, and to serve as a mentor for incoming birds. The chelation drugs are designed to bind to the lead in the condor’s system while extra fluids dilute the high levels of lead subsequently passing through liver and kidneys to minimize organ damage.

This therapy is hard on the birds, tiring them considerably, but it has been used to reduce lead levels over the decades.

“As expected, it was a very intense match, and Mack came to play,” Sanyaolu said. “We managed the game well and saw out the win.”

Del Norte finished league play with 19 points from 12 games with a record of 9-2-1.

Fortuna was second with 18 points, followed by Eureka with 16 and Arcata with 13.
