The Chinooks were mostly "ocean eaters". For the most part they ate sea mammals and fish, especially salmon. But if they hunted for "red meat" they would go for small game, deer, or even birds. They also ate roots and berries.
Elk was an important food too. Not only for meat but for the skins.
The chinook men used to go out and hunt for food they were respected and honored if they found food.

the chinook tribe did hunt for gray whales, fin whales, sperm whales, blue whales, and humpbacks, and they use the blubber for candles, and the meat for eating, even though there are 80 species of whales. they even use the whale's oil for electricity I think in 1932.

Small children enjoyed dolls, toys and games. A form of lacrosse was popular among teenagers and adult men. Many Chinook children like to go hunting and fishing with their fathers.
