The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes' Division of Fish, Wildlife, Recreation, and Conservation originally released Fire on the Land as an interactive, Flash-based DVD in 2006. With funding from the CSKT Department of Education, the project was converted from Flash to a web-based learning tool in 2021.

A note about the banner photo above and similar photos that appear in several places in this website: These photos were taken in November of 2004 to show the traditional use of fire by the Salish and Pend d'Oreille people. In the photo above, Tom Quequesah is the fire starter, and Don Sam stands with the horses.
