駝背鮭 (粉紅鮭)

Pink Salmon

Oncorhynchus gorbuscha

簡介

體型最小但也最豐富的太平洋鮭魚。由於在繁殖期雄魚背部會長出巨大的駝背，又被稱為「駝背魚」。

The smallest but most abundant Pacific salmon. Males develop a massive hump during spawning, earning the nickname "Humpback Salmon."

牠們的壽命固定為兩年，因此在許多河流中，奇數年和偶數年洄游的粉紅鮭族群是完全不重疊的。

They have a strict two-year lifespan, meaning odd-year and even-year spawning populations in many rivers are completely genetically isolated.

尚無潛點紀錄。
