Seal Bite

Posted by Bryan Bloebaum, BlueTree Images (Nashville, United States) on 13 March 2008 in Animal & Insect.

Injured or unhealthy salmon that come into the fish elevator go down a second tube. They don't get the shots or the truck ride upriver that the healthy salmon get. This one has a seal bite about one tenth the length of his body. He's already made it upriver a couple hundred miles at this point.
