Because the growing season in the Northwest is very short, the Chinook Indians had to adapt to these conditions by depending more on gathering wild food, fishing, and hunting, than on planting crops in order to survive.

Because the season on the environment where Chinookâ??s live are not suitable for planting, their main source of food is gathered from hunting wild animals. They are also very good fishermen making they spent most of their time in rivers and local bays.
