The Fish salmon is a fish of the salmon species, which are artificially bred and cultivated. Fish farmers also breed some species of trout.

Basic parameters of representatives of salmon

The body Length of representatives of salmon ranges from very small sizes, only a few centimeters to two meters. The smallest are the white-fish, but salmon, trout and Chinook salmon being the largest, reach a weight of 70 kilograms.

Usually the life of these fishes is limited to 15 years. But sometimes some of them are real long-livers. For example, was discovered taimen is a fish of the salmon species, which lived more than 50 years and at the moment of capture weighed 105 pounds! And the size of this survivor surprised all: two and a half meters – that was the length of its body!

Appearance leaseoperating

Representatives leaseoperating in their structure is extremely close to the clupeiformes. Apparently, for a long time and considered their closest relatives, all known herring. But relatively recently, scientists who study fishes, have proved that it is an independent party. Due to this discovery, they were put into a separate group that has called – asociarse.

The Body of these fishes is compressed laterally, elongated and covered with round scales. In some species, the scales have comb-like edge. Many salmon are distinguished by the presence of spots on the body, a kind of nakrap. A distinctive feature is the lateral line running along the body.

Fins leaseoperating

The Pectoral fins of all species of this family have no spiny rays. They are nizkosidyaschih. But in the ventral fins is six or more rays.

There is another interesting difference between these fish. This, for example, dorsal fins, which is observed in two salmon. One of them, a real one, with lots of rays. And in salmonids it contains from 10 to 16 seeds, and Harisovich – 17 to 24. Behind real is another bezrukovoj fin, which is called fat. It is located directly opposite the anal fin and is characteristic of fishes of this family.

Fish-salmon surprise that she has in front of the transparent eyelids. Also most leaseoperating never fully ossified skeleton. For example, almost the entire skull consists of cartilage, and lateral processes do not prihramyvaya to the bodies of the vertebrae.

Poaching is destroying the offspring of salmon

During the spawning season pronounced other distinctive features of this family of fish. The fact that this process occurs only in fresh water. Therefore, diadromous fishes living in the oceans and seas where the water is salty, to spawn against the current rise in rivers and streams. Lake asociarse also go back to the place where there was the light itself.

Still, there are many hypotheses explaining why and what the fish need to get to the spawning grounds to the place of his birth. But the poachers do not break on this issue the head. They use this circumstance, mercilessly ruining a huge amount of expensive fish ready to give birth to countless descendants. On the way to the spawning grounds exhibitedthe network using explosive packages. As a result, the light does not appear a huge amount of salmon.

Act in this way, the poachers not only because spawning fish extremely easy to catch. The question still rests also in the fact that before the spawning season of salmon occur internal metamorphosis.
