Salmon is one of the most popular fish in the United States, but farming it can cause all kinds of environmental issues.
Salmon is a fish belonging to the genus Salmon. The fry are born in rivers, go to the sea to live, and when they become adults, they come back upstream and lay eggs in the upstream. Because of this unique migratory habit, it acts as a nutrient shuttle for the ecosystem. It is a popular fish for sashimi and grilled dishes.
Most salmon die while ascending upstream, and salmon arriving at the spawning grounds eventually run out of stamina and die, but only 2-4% of Atlantic salmon survive and return to the sea.
One California startup company is growing salmon filets from cells. Could this lab-grown salmon be the future?
