The illustrations below give information about the life cycle of a fish called salmon by three different sizes in various types of rivers. Overall, there are three stages in the life cycle of a salmon from fry to adult salmon.
First, it can be seen in the first picture that the life of a salmon begins from eggs, near tiny rocks around it. It will grow under the reeds in an upper river for around five to six months. When salmon reaches approximately four years old, it will live in a lower river. The river is a rapid flowing one, which is suitable for smolts. Smolts are relatively small in size, for about 12-15cm.
Last, the third diagram shows a picture of the open sea where fully grown salmon lives, as their age is around five years old. Adult salmon are roughly 70-76cm wide. The cycle then continues with adult salmon going back to their original place, the upper river, to create more eggs.
