Sockeye Salmon live in the North Pacific and Arctic oceans and is associated with fresh water systems. They support one of the most important commercial fisheries on the Pacific Coast. Breeding males develop a humped back and elongated, hooked jaw, which is filled with sharp teeth. They live in the sea and enter freshwater to spawn.

The facts collected to describe each fish were pulled from various sources over the internet by Sealight Gallery's staff. Sealight wants to acknowledge that we did not write any of the material in regard to the descriptions, but we found the information collected fascinating. We hope that in reprinting it readers will be inspired by it to save and preserve the ocean and all of her glory.
