    It's insane that a species is so determined to carry on a strong lineage that they absolutely physically destroy themselves in the process. First the battering from traveling upstream, then the cortisol bombardment AND physical strain from mating, then no real sustenance in the pools they breed in for them. They literally kill themselves to produce the biggest and best young. What absolute machines.

It's not like there are some outliers that are like: nah dude, fuck suicide just to produce offspring, I keep living in the ocean. They can't take a different path nor comprehend the consequences of their actions.

    I've excavated several giant salmon, an ancestral species of modern pacific salmon which lived about 11 to 5 million years ago. They were huge, nine feet long, weighing up to four or five hundred pounds. The ones I've excavated had perished in a braided stream of the ancestral Deschutes River, in central Oregon, so by then, they were already migrating quite far. It is believed they had already evolved suicidal reproduction by then.

    You know I’ve always wondered about the small number of salmon that survive spawning. What happens to them? Do you the share the same fate as those who wasted away in the streams? Do they cannibalize their own young if they stick around? Or do they simply swim back towards the ocean and live out their days there forever changed from the swim back home.

      If they survive they come back the next year. There are studies that have shown some spawned 3-4 times before they disappeared.

      Atlantic Salmon are like that. Most do die, but quite a few survive.
      They just swim back to the ocean.

    I find it really interesting, Octopus seemed to have convergent evolution adaptations that are similar to the Pacific salmon. Where they are completely different species, yet they both separately evolved to pass away once they reproduce...

    • @theroamer2663
      @theroamer2663 2 года назад +10

      Pretty cool, although octopodes forgo feeding in order to stay stationary, protecting their eggs as long as possible, rather than using their energy to reach an optimal spawning ground. Protection is likely more important for octopus eggs since they're attached to a surface, all in one spot, and in the open ocean, rather than in a stream with thousands of other eggs spread nearby.

    • @willw5868
      @willw5868 Год назад +1

      It’s a very common strategy. In organisms without parental care or social structure, staying alive after mating doesn’t really have an advantage.

Salmon are such beautiful creatures, and I had no idea that they live that long!
