Animal Stories

There are many animals that live in the Lewis Creek Watershed. Some are common and some are rare or threatened by our spreading human population.

These animals provide inspiration to local storytellers and artists, and they help us to appreciate the rich diversity of life that surrounds us.

We would love to receive animal stories from a diverse group of people who live, hunt, hike or fish in the watershed.

Please read our stories and send us yours here!
