By May 2016, Greenpeace calculated that 39,000 tons of salmon washed up near the island of Chiloe in Chile. Six months later the government and the public have yet to reconcile their beliefs on the cause of the incident. According to Soberanes and Perez’ article, “The salmon crisis in Chile’s Chiloe Island,” government officials blame a “red tide” of algae as the main cause of the fish kill, completely independent of government authorization for the salmon industry to dump 9,000 tons of dead…

on the predators behaviors to become reliant on this source of food similar to the experiments performed by Pavlov when a dog heard a bell. Dams can also cause a delay for juveniles that are try to get back the ocean leaving them open to more dangers like disease, water pollution and being open to other predators. If these dams don’t have a way for fish to bypass them it won’t just effect that population of salmon, trout etcetera the impact would ripple out into the entire ecosystem for example…

The invasive effects of Dreissena polymorpha on native mussels within the Great Lakes region The Great Lakes area once supported an abundant number of freshwater mussels (Mollusca: Unionacea). The invasion of Zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) has decimated these populations, by outcompeting native mussels in dispersal rates, and reproduction, due to enhanced survival mechanisms. Understanding the mechanisms that have allowed Zebra mussels to out complete native fresh water mussels, will…

Fishing Trip My mother always said that it was better to ask for forgiveness than for permission. One day me and my friends decided to go this illegal pond at my girlfriends dads work place. Did we have no where to fish in the first place? No, we have just been bass fishing at our pond for so long we all decided to try to find another one to fish at, and Sabine Coal Mine was a great place. For one, all the ponds there were stocked with bass from top to bottom. Second these ponds were so…

(Overfishing 2012) Salinity is also a major issue. When the water table reaches 1-2 meters below the ground’s surface, the water moves and brings salt with it. As this water evaporates, it leaves the salt within the surface layers of the soil. Over time this…

Farm raised fish are good to eat, good for the environment and good for your health. If we eliminated farm raised fish from the menus, kitchen and homes around the world, the harm that would be done is almost incalculable. There is much misinformation, pop science and web sourced rumors to the contrary, but the real facts are quite clear. In the first place, fish is very healthy food for people. It is a nutritious, plentiful and relatively inexpensive food available across the globe. There are…

The Caucasian and First Nations fishermen felt that the Japanese were being given too many fishing licenses, and successfully lobbied to reduce the percentage of Japanese who owned fishing licenses from 60 to 40 percent. Another major problem was that the two groups had different fishing unions. The Japanese had their Japanese Fishermen's Association while the Fishermen's' Union was primarily staffed by Caucasians. The Fishermen's' Union was more widespread, holding dominion in Vancouver and…
