    The Invasive Humpback Salmon is Back in Sweden

    The Invasive Humpback Salmon is Back in Sweden

    The invasive humpback salmon has once again been observed in Swedish waterways, most recently in the Ätran River in Halland. The species has large spawning migrations and its impact on ecosystems is not yet known. It is therefore considered a potential threat to the already severely depleted Swedish Atlantic salmon. Researchers and authorities want to stop its spread before it is too late.
