"The Death of the Colorado"

Cucapa indian Chief Francisco Cecena Diaz draws a diagram in the sand of where the Colorado River historically passed through their native fishing grounds. The waters have receded so far that they have had to fish illegally in protected waters, in order to sustain themselves, leading to conflicts with the Mexican government and Greenpeace.
