The chum salmon live most of their lives in the ocean, but migrate to spawn from June to August. When in the ocean their colouring tends to be a silvery blue green with unclear spotting, when in fresh water their colour changes to a dark olive green and their belly colour darkens. Their ideal spawning habitats are rivers and streams, near springs.

The three spined stickleback is a small fish with three spines on its back. It has a greenish olive colour with a large black eye. Their preferred fresh water habitat are well vegetated sheltered bays, or quiet rivers with a sandy or muddy bottom. They eat small crustaceans, worms, insect larvae, and fish larvae and eggs even from their own species

Cutthroat trout vary widely in size from 6-40 inches long. They have a golden greyish green colour with pink markings. Cutthroat tend to live in smaller habitats. They require cold, clear, well oxygenated, shallow rivers with gravel bottoms or cold, deep lakes, and healthy stream-side vegetation. Coastal cutthroat are highly predatory. 

Water qualities temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, phosphate, and nitrate are acceptable to support aquatic life. Native plant species reintroduced, helps slow erosion into the creek. Native and non native plants create shade for organisms for protection from the sun. Some curves in the creek pathway have created places for organisms to live. 

A possible outcome could be a very positive one with having lots of animals come back like cutthroat trout, frogs, more birds and the creek being in a very healthy condition. Which will be a great outcome

Colquitz creek has salmon. Craigflower creek has salmon. Millstream creek also has salmon. What's different in bowker creek then these other creeks is that they are clean enough that salmon actually have resources to live off of.

We need a healthy watershed to have healthy animals, with a healthy watershed we will obtain healthy animals so that requires good water quality. We need to make sure we have healthy keystone species that will stay for some time otherwise are ecosystem will always be changing.

The pollution levels need to drop quite a bit for the fish to get a healthy living area. The levels of rain that builds up needs a draining system to make sure that it won't flood over in any way so the fish won't have the risk of being wiped out by a flood.
