The Lakota phrase, "Mitakuye Oyasin," reminds us that "we are all related" and includes all living things: humans, plants, animals, and the Earth itself. From the following article we read, "In North America, sturgeon have played important subsistence and cultural roles in Native communities, which marked the seasons by the fishes’ behavioral patterns."
