Question

After salmon spawn and the eggs hatch what percentage of young fish survive to spawn eight years later

Answer 1

not very many, as most would get mauled and eaten by bears and other predators

Answer 2

Answer:

30 to 70% survive.

Explanation:

The term "spawning" refers to the moment when in the water environment the female fish deposit their eggs in the water while the male fish deposit the seed to fertilize them. After a period of time, these eggs hatch and the larvae of fish that must grow and develop in order to continue the process of species reproduction leave.

However, depending on the environment and the amount of natural enemies, not all fish larvae will be able to grow and develop. It is believed that only 30-70% of them reach the reproductive stage.
