  PRINCE ALBERT Ron and Al Desjardin don’t run to the grocery store when they need something to eat – instead, the brothers hit the ground to trap, hunt and pick berries and medicines. Their traditional lands are being threatened by nearly 150 wildfires roaring through northern Saskatchewan. A fire has destroyed their trapline north of Turnor Lake, which has been passed on from their father and grandfather. “Not only are we losing our traplines, we’re losing our livelihoods, our ability to hunt and sustain ourselves,” Ron said. “What am I going to do now? And it’s the same for my grandchildren. Where am I going to take them now, if I want to show them where the traplines are?”
