Treaty rights


Dakota members Waziyatawin, right, and Jim Anderson, center, are stopped by Department of Natural Resources conservation officers after they tried to take a tub of netted fish to their vehicle, Friday, May 13, 2011 in Minneapolis. In the middle of the night, a group of Dakota Indians threw their fishing nets into Cedar Lake. When they drew a hefty collection of fish from the water Friday morning, conservation officers stood by, ready to gather up the fish. (AP Photo/The Star Tribune, David Joles)
