Salmon Spawning Season in Greater Victoria
Salmon spotting season is underway across Vancouver Island, with the peak expected to hit later this month. Pacific salmon are returning home to rivers and streams after travelling thousands of kilometres.
According to the Pacific Salmon Foundation, salmon have already been spotted in Goldstream Provincial Park and up Island at Puntledge and Quinsam rivers.
"(This) is turning out to be a great year to spot salmon,"
said Michael Meneer, foundation president and CEO. He attributed this to favourable ocean conditions and significant conservation work by First Nations, streamkeepers, and grassroots groups across B.C.
"We hope people take the opportunity to get outdoors and visit local streams to witness this incredible migration."
The number of salmon returning to date shows their resilience, making this a great opportunity for people to witness their migration.
