Can you count all the salmon? AI can🐟
New technology is transforming how we monitor fish populations in hard-to-reach places.
With support from PSF, the Wild Salmon Center is working with First Nations partners to pilot 10 AI-powered salmon counting systems.

Last year saw one of the highest endangered Chinook returns in a decade for the Sq’éwqel community near Agassiz.
That moment was made possible by years of restoration at Maria Slough, and the work continues this summer with support from PSF's Community Salmon Program.
