Summary[edit]

Description
English: Chinook salmon on the Lower Stanislaus River in Central Valley of California.
  • The Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is an anadromous fish that is the largest species in the salmon family. Chinook salmon range from San Francisco Bay in California to north of the Bering Strait in Alaska, and the waters of Canada and Russia.
  • They are highly valued, mostly due to their relative scarcity, compared to other salmon along the Pacific Coast.
  • Nine populations are listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act as either threatened or endangered, including the fall runs found in California's Bay-Delta.
