Sockeye Salmon
Sockeye Salmon, also known as blueback, red, and kokanee salmon, are anadromous Pacific Ocean fish and the third most populated salmon in the Pacific. They are known for their blue and silver color in the ocean and turn brilliant red when spawning. They primarily consume zooplankton and are semelparous, dying after spawning once. The conservation status of the population is under review due to declining numbers since the 1990s. The species is considered to be of least concern overall.
