- The Salmon Forest is a 30-minute documentary film that explores the connection between
wild salmon and life in Alaska’s Tongass National Forest, the largest national forest in the United States.
The film follows Alaskan salmon on their epic migration from the streams of the forest to the ocean and back, revealing the various lives they impact along the way.
Pull in a huge catch with commercial fishermen, explore the breathtaking landscapes that draw in millions, watch as a mother bear lunges into a stream to feed her cubs, visit a native Tlingit community to better understand salmon’s cultural significance, and meet the people who work day and night to ensure this public resource is protected for generations to come.
Filmed in stunning high definition, The Salmon Forest highlights one of the last healthy homes for salmon on Earth, and provokes a deeper understanding of this complex and beautiful ecosystem.
Ultimately, this film celebrates the unique role public lands play in salmon production and reminds us that proper management is vital to sustain the future of commercial fisheries, subsistence, recreation, and our forests.

And now i know the life cycle of salmon, birth on the upstream forest river, migration to the sea and going back to the place where their were born and end their life for nature.. What an inspiring video.. ❤❤
I can't wait to see Disney make a heart wrenching Salmon fish like Nemo.
Their longing to return back to the same place where they were born and make it their final resting place ,the struggles they face mang predators along the way ,the struggles to jump over the high cliff,their fasting for a year,the sacrifice of their life after spawning just to feed the wildlife or contribute nutrients to the eco system that birth them is just one of the most inspiring,amazing and out of this world.
I think Salmon are the most intelligent fish I've ever known.
I seriously hope Disney will make a hearth warming and emotional movie of a "Salmon Journey back home"
I would love to watch
Southeast Alaska is so beautiful, there's no other place like it. I was lucky enough to spend time in Ketchikan when I was a child, I would love to return. Beautiful documentary, very emotional ♡
Been getting recommended salmon videos. At the same time, I've developed respect and appreciation to these critters.
As a former SCS board member, i am So Proud of you! Thank you! ( aka Claire Johnson back then, 1990s). Much love and appreciation!!!
I went to the tongess before this documentary
Most beautiful place I ever have and ever will visit
I'm a salmon fish fan from Turkey. I'd like to thank you for the excellet job you've done for salmon. I don't know nd I'm not sure but maybe, one day, I'd like to visit Alaska's National Forest ,Tongass. I watched lots of videos / documentaries about salmon but this one was really amazing. Thank you a lot.
Go catch a turkey from you country instead.

Don’t come pl :-
Very beautiful film! Nature. Forests. Rivers. Streams. Sea. Ocean. Salmon of the wild kind. This i love to eat! So natural. Healthy. Uncontaminated.
In June ,I’ll be going on my 3rd Alaskan cruise in 3 years It’s so beautiful up there. This is an amazing video about life in the Tongass
Hands down the most beautiful documentary I have ever watched. Thanks to all for their great work a contribution. I think we need more documentaries like these to educate people how important it is to sustain the natural ecological system rather that meddling with nature
I salute all the people who are working in Southeast Alaska to maintain this ecosystem and ensure it stays healthy.One of the most satisfying jobs a person could ask for.
It’s amazing that 94% of the streams and rivers are intact so they are really working on the last 6% for the salmon.
Amazing video I’m an Alaskan native and actually just caught three silver salmon tonight for my mom. Love seeing the love for these fish.
Yet if you watch this carefully you’ll see how much of the Tongass has been systematically stripped of its timber at the cost of the US tax payer to keep less than 100 people in paid employment via a couple of mills. While the rest of the raw timber gets shipped off to China.
Wish you all the best! Stand strong!
Brought tears to my eyes. I love telling stories of the totems and bringing people to watch bears and salmon.
We are all connected. I missed so much in my life until this truth.
I cried as a child knowing the salmon, eagles and so many other things would be extinct, but I never knew why I cried.
I've always wanted to go to Alaska for different reasons, but today I just want to go to Alaska to breathe, feel, see all there is to just be.
My toddler loves this doc. I hope it will still be there for his kids.
I just want visit once in my life time and play with the nature of alaska. Love from Nepal. ❤️❤️
This narrator voice was so soothing that i fall asleep multiple times while watching this😅❤️
Heavenly Beauty 💖
Truly Nature doesn't need humans ,humans need Nature .
22:00 min in..when the old folks are showing how it's done...and when Joel folded open the dried salmon like a book, so cool. Great video all the way around! Being from the Seattle area I love this stuff.👍❤
Yes! I could taste the sockeye when he opened. I could see the history and read the story.
I heard everything about the salmon, bear, eagles, ocean and river along with the people who care for them. I heard it all through my eyes. This, is amazing.
Thank you.
Beautiful documentary film.💝
All human must learn to protect the nature .So our new generation would get the same beautiful experience .
Nature give me peace from noisy traffic world.❣️
Now I feel bad... That Mole is made with LOVE!
Thank you to my teacher Mr. Shroufe for showing me a video about my favorite type of fish
Fished remote streams in Sitka area for the 1st time last summer. Other than the constant fog and bone chilling humidity and lack of sunshine, it was the most beautiful area I have ever seen. Live in coastal South Carolina so quite a difference!
Wow...I'm so amazed for those people who are really cared for something that consider as treasure.Thank you guys for sharing this knowledge to us..
God bless 🙌
I cried watching this beacuse fish make me so happy xD
I am going here on my anniversary as a gift. So very excited!
I was very very lucky to grow up in the Tongass. Our world is so precious!
في اي بلد انتي
This is awesome. Being from Georgia(USA) I love learning about the salmon. Thanks for the lesson!!! Keep em comin.
Grew up in Southeast Alaska, and come back in the summers to commercial fish... I teach Biology in Colorado, and often talk about the importance of sustainable fisheries to my students. This does an amazing job of demonstrating the importance. Showing it to my Zoology class today.
i love doccumentation like this amazing
The speaker ......her voice,♥️
Great treasure of fishes! Thank you for taking care of the environment so that people may continue to enjoy life.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with me in Florida 🦝💚
one beautiful documentary..thanks
I would love to visit this place . It just a amazing place and in future to visit this place. From India 🇮🇳 ♥
. . . I had to stop and comment on this one young man as he was filled with not only emotions but the realization that most do not have and that is that we must take care of our resources for we want our future generations to not only enjoy that which we now have and runs in our veins as it is part of us for to be also part of them and theirs for generations to come for to negate this is to negate that which gives us life and a reason of a livelihood and that which without words expressed is very palpable and I felt it to the core of what he was feeling and just on that my respects to him and his wife and family all of them . ! !
Im from Asia and i miss Alaska fishing so much…. this documentary bring so much memory for me.
Incredible. Great documentary. Will have to visit Southeastern Alaska one day. Would also love to visit Lake Clark National Park, which is where tons of salmon spawn.
So beautiful and soothing music
Red salmon fascinating.!!😊🐟🐟🐟
This river is very productive lots of salmon wwwwwow like this place I feel peace and harmony
I love this channel ,I love salmon I wish I can catch one for my son
Very beautiful views and a very relaxing and full of stories film.
What an Amazing place. Great job of telling the story of Tongass and SE Alaska. You really need to be there to truly understand it.
You can pretty much say that about all of southern gulf coast of Alaska! We are spoiled up here.😉
Beautiful
THIS is beautiful
Very soothing
this is such a beautiful stream.
I love this documentary.
Amazing fish salmon form philipines
Excellent location, God's creation of heaven
Old Alaskan saying, When god created earth, he started in Alaska!😉
thank you for this video my class was learning about salmon and this video helped a lot thx
If you want to learn how to prepare, store, dry, and 101 uses of salmon bones, spend some time with the Tlingit.
Tip: The first thing you need to figure out is Tlingit time. They don't cram things into an organizer. Kind of like island time. Set aside a few days, let them be concerned about the clock, and they'll show you the best vacation you've ever had.
You guys have done an amazing job on this film. Each shot is visually striking and beautiful. These could easily be National Geographic quality. And really nice job on showing the overall relationship these salmon have to the local Alaskan economy and wellbeing of its citizens, and how important the salmon are to the ecosystems of the largest temperate intact rainforest (a fact I did not know before this doc).
The only thing I wish is that narration was recorded a bit better. She has a nice calm voice, but it seems that the recording itself is slightly muffled, or the mic isn't quite angled correctly, or the mixing is off. Other than that, huge thumbs up!
I think it's a wonderful thoughtful video and appreciated. Alaska is a dream to enjoy.
Pretty Salmon.
Luv it
I call this home. Love Alaska. Ketchikan 🥰
To bad your in Ketchikan. Just saying. Many better places in southeast Alaska.
Great video really loved it!
I live in the Tongass it's amazing!
انتي من اي بلد اين تقع تونغاس
Wonderful show thank you I hope we can conserve and protect salmon for the next generations.
Salmon is probably my favorite meat. If it's seasoned good there's literally nothing that tastes better except maybe steelhead trout. I don't get enough fish, I miss Colorado.
Such beautiful footage and a healthy fish to eat. I really love this. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber and fan.
The music is INCREDIBLE
I want to call Tongass my home one day
What’s stopping you? As a longtime Alaskan, only downside to Tongass area is few jobs and most are seasonal in summer, yet you get National Geographic moments daily!😉👍
Very well done
beautiful documentary
The best,,,

Wow!
God bless these hard working people and their families

I’ve always wanted to go salmon fishing in alaska
It’s pretty fun
Kodiak it will the right place to go in mid May or even earlier
@@JoseGonzalez-zo2zn , Huh? I salmon fish guide here in Alaska, been to Kodiak many times, your comment on best fishing is early May shows you don’t live on Kodiak or Alaska! Hilarious!
thank you
Wow this is amazing❤️
Amazing
I am from indonesia .. i love your movir
smoked salmon.....yum eat it everyday
It's so incredibly important that we don't overfish this part of the world. It's so important that we don't cut down all the old growth. Use it in a limited capacity, and you can use it forever.
Guess why we here in Alaska have the largest intact temperate rainforest, healthiest fishery, wilderness left on earth??? We here in Alaska have managed it well, unlike most other places! Think about that! Old Alaskan residents saying, “The best stewards of Alaska, are Alaskan’s “. Chew on that fact!😳
Great documentary. I wish it would have went into some of the challenges of continued timbering's effect on salmon
Beautiful documentary! Loved every bit of it
The salmon is one of the most vital species on this planet , the life it brings is one of the greatest of all resources. The life around it depends on its cycle of existence to exist. I remember in my local rivers in and around Yosemite, how are Salmon population used to be so abundant back in the 80s and into the 90s now it is so depleted you're lucky to see 20 to 30 fish a season come back into are systems. It was so awesome to walk into our rivers and get pushed aside by migrating fish , I remember catching a 40lb fish , sadly, those days are gone . America today needs to change its practice and outcome of the future of our fisheries, but it's a up hill battle because of the lack of education and willingness to protect those fisheries due to people that feel its more important to use up the waters to feed crops, livestock along with human development and Usage of such a resource. I imagine these fish will end up losing altogether, but so will the life on this planet because of greed . They need to implement laws that can not be changed in protecting waterways , fishtrees, and regulations regardless of what politicians' governments and corporations want..
Nice very beautiful
Subscriber #904 here..6 more to go to get paid..wohooo
ان افضل وطيب سمك في العالم هي السلمون
This is why we need to remove dams on rivers. Removing dams on rivers helps the salmon fishery stay healthy. The rivers in California need to remove the dams on rivers.
No governments are stupid enough to build dams on migratory fish way. The problem is the fishermen.
I want to live in Alaska
It’s alright down here
