Make the most out of your life
The family Salmonidae is composed of freshwater and anadromous salmon, such as the trout, the Arctic Char, and whitefish. The anadromous fish, means that it spends most of its adult life in the ocean but returns to freshwater to reproduce. ... Once the salmon are done spawning, they do not have enough energy to make their way back to the ocean so they die. ... The process of producing eggs and the long ways they travel have negative effects on the salmon as they no longer have enough energy to make it back to the ocean. ... (Chaput,G) As you can see, the salmon cycle is very unique as they rely on the adults to successfully make their way to the rivers. ... With the many hydro-electric dams in the rivers, many salmon cannot make it to their spawning grounds and therefore cannot reproduce successfully.
