Pacific Salmon Field Guide

The Pacific Salmon Field Guide is an excellent resource for anyone interested in various species, but it is also a good example of how to write an informative piece about an animal for science lessons. Each section of the book includes various maps and full-colour images alongside facts presented in clear language. Educators may be particularly interested in the “Indigenous Perspective” section that provides a one-page overview from the authors based on their academic and cultural roots. It is a good example of how academic science and Indigenous ways of knowing share common themes, such as respect for the environment and acknowledging broader ecosystem relationships.
