Salmon is a type of fish known for its distinctive pink or orange flesh and delicious taste. It is a popular seafood choice in many parts of the world, including North America, Europe, and Asia. Salmon is found in both freshwater and saltwater environments, and it is known for its remarkable life cycle. These fish are born in freshwater rivers and streams, where they hatch from eggs laid by adult salmon. They then spend a portion of their lives in freshwater before migrating to the ocean, where they grow and mature. When it's time to reproduce, adult salmon return to the same freshwater streams where they were born, a remarkable navigational feat. Salmon is renowned for its flavor and nutritional value. It is an excellent source of high-quality protein and essential vitamins and minerals.
