"The Flathead Indian Reservation is home to three tribes, the Bitterroot Salish, Upper Pend d’Oreille, and the Kootenai."

"A hemorrhagic disease (EHD) caused by biting midge flies has been confirmed to be the source of mortalities in white-tailed deer from the areas surrounding Polson, Ronan, St. Ignatius, Hot Springs and Mission Valley. Though it is a viral disease, it is not contagious to humans but can influence deer and elk species. Outbreaks tend to occur near water sources in late-summer and early fall when certain small fly species emerge. The disease can persist in an area for 2-3 years after an initial outbreak, and will likely subside after the first few frosts of the season.CSKT Division"

"“When I was a student in high school, I entered a competition to design the CSKT seal and was thrilled and excited to learn that my design was selected,” said Corky. “Important concepts found in the design, is a representation of the Tribes past, while also looking forward to our place in the future. Chief Koostatah depicts the rich history and culture of our Tribes, wearing a war bonnet and in a traditional white buckskin outfit, he gazes across the Flathead River with mountains seen in the distance. His gesture is of looking forward for those things yet to come, while also reminding of the preparations needed to address the future wellbeing of our Tribes.”"

"The official seal of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes shows one of the last Ksanka traditional leaders, Chief Koostatah, standing on a rock outcropping that overlooks roaring white water. The current seal was inspired by a talented young Tribal Member, Corky Clairmont, who was still in high school at the time the seal was developed. This was the early ‘60s. Today Corky’s artistic legacy endures in the seal of the Tribes, and continues throughout his prolific career in the arts, as an instructor for many years at the Salish Kootenai College and through a lifetime of his many artistry installed and shown throughout the region and beyond. Corky’s original design was revamped in the early 1980’s, which altered the raised hand of the original to more of a pointing gesture, with additional colors and textures also added."
