Klamath River declared to be a person

The '''Klamath River''' is in [[Oregon]] and has been declared to be a "person" by the Yurok Tribe:<ref>https://nnigovernance.arizona.edu/klamath-river-now-has-legal-rights-person</ref>
{{cquote|[T]he Yurok Tribe declared rights of personhood for the Klamath River — likely the first to do so for a river in North America. A concept previously restricted to humans (and corporations), “rights of personhood” means, most simply, that an individual or entity has rights, and they’re now being extended to nonhumans.}}

A decline in [[salmon]] in the Klamath River has debatable causes, which include diversion of water for irrigation or even the [[global warming]] hoax.
