The Tongass rain forest in Southeast Alaska is one of the rarest ecosystems on Earth. Mountains rise from the sea, and bald eagles, grizzly bears and all five species of Pacific salmon call this area home.
Explore this rich landscape up close in Salmon in the Trees: Life in Alaska's Tongass Rain Forest.
