As salmon do not eat during their spawning migration, Yukon River salmon must have great reserves of fat and energy to fuel their thousands-mile-long journey. The Chinook, which arrive at the mouth of the Yukon River in early June, have the longest journey – as many as 2,000 miles against the current, with an estimated 35–50% bound for Canada. As a result, Chinook salmon are noted for their especially rich and fatty meat and are the priciest of all Pacific salmon species.<sup id="cite_ref-grist_37-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-grist-37"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The villages along the Yukon have historically relied on and continue to rely on salmon for their cultural, subsistence, and commercial needs.

The late 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s have been marked by radically reduced runs for various salmon species.
