It’s surrounded by former tidal wetlands that are golden-brown and its south end is bordered by the California Delta. This is where two major rivers meet: the San Joaquin River and the Sacramento River.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cassie Pinnell, a biologist with the Montezuma Wetlands Restoration Project, says these two rivers are major corridors for federally-listed California fish like Chinook Salmon and Delta Smelt. “These rivers are bringing fish from far up in California, dumping them right here,” Pinnell says. “They're looking for a place to eat, hide and grow, as they work their way out to the bay and the ocean.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over 100 years ago, Montezuma and the surrounding areas by the Delta were lush tidal wetlands filled with wildlife.
