Left Handed Cousins In The Hatchery Tank...




























A new study out of Oregon State University is out there's some interesting news

take this headline...

"DNA evidence shows that salmon hatcheries cause substantial, rapid genetic changes"

and..

"The research, published today in Nature Communications, found that after one generation of hatchery culture, the offspring of wild fish and first-generation hatchery fish differed in the activity of more than 700 genes"

Read the article, it's a doozy.
