Salmon

 

Animal You | Salmon | Salmon eggs are set in the freshwater streams typically at high latitudes. The eggs hatch into fry or fry ends. Only 10% of salmon eggs survive estimated at this stage. Changes in smolt body chemistry, allowing them to live in salt water. The salmon spend one to five years (depending on species) in the ocean, where little by little pubescent. The adult salmon then return everything to their natal streams to spawn. Just prior to spawning, depending on the species, salmon changes. You can develop a hump, develop canine teeth develop kype (a curve from the jaws of the male salmon). Everything will change the silvery blue of a fresh sea fish within a darker color. Salmon make amazing journeys, sometimes moving hundreds of miles upstream against strong currents and rapids to reproduce. Chinook and sockeye salmon from central Idaho, for example, traveling more than 900 miles (1,400 km) and climb nearly 7,000 feet (2,100 m) in the Pacific to return to spawn.


Between 2 and 4% of Atlantic salmon scavengers survive to breed again, all women. But even in those species of salmon that may survive more than once (iteroparity) spawn after spawning mortality is quite high (perhaps as high as 40-50%.) To make the eggs, the female salmon uses her tail (caudal fin), to create a low pressure zone, lifting gravel to be swept down, digging a shallow depression, called REDD. The eggs generally orange to red. Fresh water growth rings shows that the tight against the growth of sea spaced rings; spawn is characterized by considerable erosion as body mass becomes eggs and spleen. Freshwater streams and estuaries provide important habitat for many species of salmon. Mortality of salmon in the early life stages is usually high due to natural predation and human-induced changes in habitat, such as salinity, high water temperatures, the oxygen concentration is low, the high and low Cover Flow reduced river. Estuaries and associated wetlands provide vital areas for salmon farming before landlocked.


In the Pacific Northwest and Alaska salmon are keystone species, support wildlife, such as birds, bears and otters. The bodies of the salmon is a transfer of nutrients from the ocean, rich in nitrogen, sulfur, carbon and phosphorus in forest ecosystems. Function grizzly ecosystem engineers, salmon catch and bring in adjacent wooded areas. Fir leaf up to 500 m (1,600 ft) of a stream where bears are fishing for salmon in nitrogen salmon fishing. More information: Salmon Run. It was recorded in the field samples of salmon returning to the islands of the Queen Charlotte Islands. Henneguya myxosporean parasites and other group a complex life cycle, where the salmon is one of the two hosts. Fish provides the spores after spawning. If Henneguya, spores of introducing a second host, an invertebrate probably in spawning stream. When juvenile salmon migrate to the Pacific Ocean, the second host gives a platform for infectious salmon. The parasite is then introduced into the salmon farming cycle to the next.


According to Klaus Schallie, crustacean Program Specialist Food Inspection Agency of Canada, "nicola salmi Henneguya located in southern BC also and in all species of salmon. Many farms can create net densely populated in unusually high concentrations of sea lice, when exposed in estuaries with large number of open net farms, many young wild salmon are infected and do not survive longer. Adult salmon may survive otherwise critical numbers of sea lice, but small, thin-skinned juvenile salmon migrating to sea are highly vulnerable. On the Pacific coast of Canada, the louse-induced mortality of pink salmon in some regions is generally over 80%. Salmon is a popular food. Classified as an oily fish, salmon is considered healthy by high protein fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. Salmon is high also a source of cholesterol, with a range of 23-214 mg/100 g, depending on the species. According to reports in the journal Science, but farmed salmon may contain high levels of dioxins. PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) levels may be up to eight times higher in farmed salmon than in wild salmon.


Salmon flesh is generally orange to red, with white meat, although the product of wild salmon. The natural color of the carotenoid pigments, mainly salmon astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, but also in salmon flesh.Wild obtain these carotenoids by eating krill and other small crustaceans. The vast majority of Atlantic salmon in the world are high (almost 99%), whereas the majority of Pacific salmon are wild caught (over 80%). Canned salmon in the U.S. is usually taken wild Pacific, although some farmed salmon is available as canned. Smoked salmon is another popular preparation method, and can be hot or cold smoked. Lox can refer to cold smoked salmon or smoked salmon in a brine solution (also called gravlax). Traditional canned salmon includes some skin (which is harmless) and bone (which adds calcium). Canned salmon skinless and boneless is also available. Raw salmon flesh may Anisakis nematodes, marine parasites that cause anisakiasis. Check the availability of refrigeration, the Japanese did not consume raw salmon. Salmon and salmon caviar comes only in making sashimi (raw fish) and sushi
