The northwest Indian tribes ate salmon because it was simply an available food .Just as the Sioux ate the buffalo, the salmon to the northwest tribes was the most available food source. They also would eat berries and plants native to the region. They also hunted animals indigenous to the region. The native peoples of all tribes adapted their eating habits to what was available.
