This book describes the efforts of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes to save and restore Sãiçpálî or whitebark pine, which is now threatened with extinction from accelerating and intensifying effects of the climate crisis and disease. Often there is too little communication and exchange between Indigenous communities working on issues of cultural survival and restoration and scientists focused on their own research methodologies and approaches. On the Flathead Reservation, however, the disparate worlds are being brought together in a visionary effort to save whitebark pine, reflecting what is known as biocultural restoration.
