- 5Dams Both Broke and Now Sustain the Tulotoma Snail●— Broken by Dams, Sustained by Dams — The Tulotoma snail is still “a river life broken by people, yet sustained by peopl
The Tulotoma snail, a river species once pushed toward decline by dam construction, now depends on dam operations for its survival. Conservation writers note the paradox: too little water during drought harms the snail, while heavy rain after dry spells washes mud and pollution into rivers. Controlled dam releases now help maintain the flows the species needs, illustrating how human infrastructure both damaged and now sustains river life.
