🐟Atlantic salmon
Атлантический лосось, или озёрный лосось, или сёмга (лат. Salmo salar), — вид лососёвых рыб из рода лососей. Может достигать длины 1,5 м и массы 43 кг. Максимальная продолжительность жизни 13 лет. Сёмга способна проплыть 2500 км за 50 суток. Такой путь проделала помеченная самка сёмги, возвращаясь в родную реку Выг для икрометания, с 10 июня до 1 августа 1935 года. Один из ценнейших промысловых видов среди лососей. Мясо и икра сёмги обладают высокими гастрономическими качествами и являются деликатесными продуктами.
