#Missionaries brought #cattle to #Opitsaht in the early 1900s in #futile attempt to turn #Westcoast #FirstNations fishers into farmers (why would you give up a diet of salmon and seafood right on your doorstep year-round?). They did manage to leave behind a #strange #legacy 🐮
Moses Martin, chief of #Tlaoquiaht #FirstNation was born and raised in #Opitsaht - tiny village on #MearesIsland off the west coast of #VancouverIsland . Since the 1940s he remembers there were always a dozen or so #cows 🐂
