In order to lay their eggs, female steelhead trout need a stream riffle with a gravel bottom. The eggs then hatch, and the newborn steelhead (alevin) soon develop into fry that consume zooplankton for subsistence.…

Sharks will either cross oceans for migration or they will stick to the coast, but either way they can travel thousands of miles for migration. Vertical migrators do not travel great distances along coasts or across oceans like horizontal migrators, but more impressively, these migrators are experiencing a drastic change in temperatures and pressure. Vertical migrators dive down and resurface over hundreds of meters within a short amount of time, for example, “White Sharks may move up and down between the surface and 200-m (660-ft) depths as often as 96 times in 24 hours (Helfman).”…
