| Description: | Southern Oregon was home to several Tribes of Native Americans before Euro-American influx to the area and the subsequent forced removal of Tribal people. Modern day Tribes are still actively engaged in the management of public lands and the many resources that are found there, and have a vested interest in interpretation and protection of those resources. Tribes consider many resources to be â¿¿cultural resources including plants and animals. The need for interpretive opportunities throughout the region has increased, along with the need to protect important resources.
