The Mulka of Australia (Aboriginal tribe) show how important the passing on of fishing knowledge is to the health of their people.
Saami (Lapp) people of Norway struggle to protect their fishing rights and resources. These are the "reindeer people" that the Santa Claus story comes from!

Annie Pilgrim, Takelma (Oregon tribe) elder talks about fishing as part of native life "back in the day".
