Late September into early October is Moon of Elk Mating Cry. This moon signals the coming of autumn. All five runs of salmon are fished in this moon. Hunting for big game such as elk and deer begins. Wild plants like rose hips and cattail roots continue to be harvested in this moon. In this video, we share the moral story of “Bully Elk,” and listen to a conversation about hunting by Swinomish tribal members.
