Rainbow trout.ppt
Rainbow trout are a species of salmonid fish that live in shallow streams, rivers, lakes, and coastal waters around the world. They eat a variety of foods like insects, fish eggs, and small fish. Rainbow trout spawn in the spring and females can lay between 2,000-3,000 eggs at a time. In the wild, they are preyed upon by other fish, bears, otters, raccoons, seals, and killer whales. In Georgia, laws are in place to protect the rainbow trout population.

Indus dolphin
The Indus river dolphin is the national aquatic animal of Pakistan and is found exclusively in the Indus River. It has a stocky gray-brown body with a low hump instead of a dorsal fin and extremely small eyes. The dolphin measures 1.5-2.5 meters long and weighs 80-90 kg. It lives in the main channels of the Indus River as well as seasonal tributaries and flooded lowlands during monsoon season. The dolphin breeds between May and June when the river floods, and females give birth after 11-12 month gestation periods. Their population centers around the Guddu to Sukkur stretch of the Indus River.

This document contains summaries of several articles about threats facing different animal species and environmental pollution issues:
- Sumatran rhinoceros populations have been reduced to only 6 groups due to illegal poaching for their horns in traditional Chinese medicine.
- The American manatee's habitat has been reduced by human development in coastal areas, and many are killed by motorboat propellers or ingesting fishing gear.
- Elephant seals were hunted for food by sailors, with over 10,000 taken from the Galapagos islands in just 36 years, driving the species near extinction.
Brown Trout Nick B
Brown trout are cold-blooded freshwater fish typically weighing 2 pounds and measuring 13 to 16 inches long. They are identified by large black or reddish-orange spots with pale borders on their sides. Brown trout live in rivers, streams, and lakes, migrating to streams in late autumn to spawn in gravel areas, where females lay an average of 2,000 eggs. They are carnivorous, eating insects, worms, crayfish, and small fish. The eggs are buried in gravel to protect them from sunlight and other environmental factors until hatching. While endangered, brown trout populations face additional threats from acid rain degrading their freshwater habitats.

A1 POSTER 'A cull for change'
There is an ongoing debate between anglers and bird conservation groups over whether a cull of cormorants is needed to protect fish stocks. Anglers argue that rising cormorant numbers are negatively impacting fisheries, while groups like the RSPB question if culls are necessary and appropriate given inconclusive evidence. The RSPB supports continued monitoring and alternative scaring methods over widespread killing. DEFRA will determine if changes are made to the licensing system allowing cormorant shooting. It is a complex issue with valid concerns on both sides around species and ecosystem protection.

The East Kolkata Wetlands were recognized in 2002 as a Ramsar site of international significance. They cover 125 square kilometers and include salt marshes, meadows, sewage farms, and settling ponds that treat Kolkata's sewage through natural processes while supporting fish farms and agriculture. However, the wetlands are now highly threatened due to urbanization. They provide important ecosystem services including flood protection and wastewater treatment for Kolkata, but 91.53 hectares have been lost to development. Poaching of fish from fisheries and dumping of garbage also threaten the wetlands. Conservation of this integrated resource management system is important for the environmental health and economy of Kolkata.
