Salmon at MK Nature Center
Submitted by Zimo on Fri, 09/05/2008 - 5:54pm.
Idaho Fish and Game has stocked the underwater-stream display at the MK Nature Center with chinook and kokanee salmon.
It's really cool. Get down there this weekend because the fish will be spawned out and probably dead by next week. Don't worry, it's a natural thing. Salmon die after spawning.
A visit to the Nature Center this weekend is a great way to see the fish. The salmon are spawning over the gravel.
There is already one carcass of a large salmon in the stream showing nature's way.
Staff at the Nature Center say mink come in and try to steal the live salmon and also feed on the dead salmon.
It's a neat way to see nature at work right in the city. The Nature Center is located behind the Idaho Department of Fish and Game headquarters at 600 S. Walnut. St.
Enjoy.

Yay. Dead fish!
They all thought Helen was crazy. She was cute too.
Smarter than Palin by far.
