Life Cycle of the Pacific Salmon

National Marine Sanctuary Foundation and PNCA Animated Arts present The Pacific Salmon Life Cycle.

This film's animation and sound design was created entirely by students in the Animated Arts program at the Pacific Northwest College of Art with scientific guidance from NOAA Fisheries West Coast Region. Support for this project was provided by a grant from the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation.
