well the MOST humane thing would be to not build dams blocking salmon migration routes, nor create a society where there are only resources allocated to solving the problem at all because blocking the salmon endangers the profits of a segment of the food industry.Β
Buuuut since weβre past that already, here are a couple of additional thoughts:
1
this IS the more humane alternative, which was invented to lower injury and death rates associated with previous techniques. When a better alternative is revealed it will probably replace this one. But this one is a pretty huge improvement over the other methods, one of which killed off something like 80% of the fish involved.
A study of the above fish tube was conducted by Pacific Northwest National Laboratories in 2017 on the Columbia River and showed a much higher success rate. In that study, only one fish died (βdue to a human error during the system setupβ) and only 3 percent had signs of injury. So. The next best improvement might have to beΒ βremove damβ
2
they are on their way to die. That is where we are helping them get to. Thatβs the end goal of the salmonβs migration. They on their way to mutate, start rotting alive, have an orgy, and die. Thatβs where the tube is taking them.
So like, itβs not going to be the weirdest thing they experience this month, is what iβm saying.Β
