I've talked to many an angler recently, and the common thought is that sockeye will become pretty much extinct in our lifetimes...
Quite the legacy for people's children...

not only in canada
but in indonesia ( where I live at the moment ) people use TNT to fish out of our oceans
8 days ago they got killed because 200 kg+ TNT exploded in their own house. I did not even feel sorry because they deserve it
2 days ago I wsa fishing in one of the MOST productive seas in Indonesia and I could not even get a single strong bite
PS : about orang utan its because borneo is being exploited by foreign companies e.g. USA for lumbers
