#Rotting Balls of Fish Flesh Invade Salton Sea's Shores DENVER Boneyard beaches littered with dead tilapia line the shores of California's Salton Sea.
Thousands of fish die here every year suffocated when winds stir up low-oxygen water from the lake depths.
A fascinating and foul discovery on the skeleton-clad shores recently revealed the fate of the rest of the fish remains.
Perhaps disturbed by fierce winds globs of decomposed fish flesh recently rose from deep in the Salton Sea coagulated into spheres on the lake surface
Geochemical analysis then revealed the rotting balls were made of tilapia adipocere a hard waxy substance that feels slippery like soap Simpson said.

and vegetables you consume every dayand eating a serving of fish once a week. While nuts and seeds are a source of omega-3 fatty acids a type of healthy fat it's not clear how much of this healthy fat we actually get by eating them Mangieri said.
Because of this the best sources of omega-3s are fatty fish such as salmon sardines and trout.
Fish like salmon have more calories than white-fleshed fish so limit your portion of the fatty fish to 3 to 4 ounces a serving Mangieri said Studies also show that the olive oil sold in the United states may not be as healthful as olive oils sold in Mediterranean countries Tallmadge said.
Good quality olive oil that has been harvested freshly and minimally processed (extra virgin) is high in compounds called polyphenols

Since then study after study has confirmed that omega-3s in fish have a potent effect on reducing heart disease.

Osteoporosis is lower in populations who eat more fish such as Asians when compared to Europeans who eat more calcium-containing foods said Bruce Watkins nutrition professor at Purdue University.

The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends all adults eat a variety of fish particularly oily fish at least twice weekly

In many cases poachers are opportunistic poaching to supplement their incomes or merely survive. Throwing money at the problem like hiring rangers doesn't necessarily help Leakey said.
#World's Largest Owl Exposes Health of Russia's Forests The world's largest owl requires equally huge trees a finding that reveals that this salmon-devouring predator could be a key sign of the health of some of the last great forests of Russia
Blakiston's fish owl (Bubo blakistoni) is one of the rarest owls in the world an endangered bird restricted to Russia China Japan and possibly North korea.
See Photos of Giant Salmon-Eating Owls The dead of winter Little was known about how this owl used its habitat
One of the reasons it's so hard to find fish owl nest trees is that the birds are almost unbelievably shy.
The one thing working in our favor to find where the owls fish in winter is snow Slaght said.
Fish owls will walk up and down the riverbank in their favorite fishing spots jumping in to catch fish here and there
and so even though we might not see the owls themselves they leave their tracks behind in the snow
and watching a fish owl hunt not more than 100 feet 30 m away completely unaware of my presence.
and their favorite prey salmon rely on giant old-growth trees for breeding and feeding. The large trees provide nesting cavities big enough for the birds
and shallow fast-moving channels that are critical to salmon at different stages in their lives.
Blakiston's fish owl is a clear indicator of the health of the forests rivers
and salmon populations Slaght said. In recent decades logging and other human activities have expanded into and endangered this owl's habitat.
and managing old-growth forests is essential for sustaining this species as well as eight salmon and trout species that spawn in the rivers there some of the 12 other owl species found in Primorye and mammals such as the endangered Siberian tiger Asiatic black bear and wild boar.
Large woody debris results in river complexity which brings in the salmon which brings in the fish owls Slaght said.
This is an important realization because some policymakers don't care about conservation but they do care about the economy.
We can now make a case for reduced logging in riparian riverbank zones in Primorye
because this action can potentially impact commercially valuable salmon populations. Slaght and his colleagues R. J. Gutiã rrez and Sergei Surmach will detail their findings in the October issue of the journal Oryx.

#Intersex Fish Showing Up in Pennsylvania Rivers Editor's Note: This story was updated on Tuesday (July 1) at 10:25 a m. E t. Scientists found intersex fish in three river basins in Pennsylvania a sign that the water may be tainted with chemicals from human activity.
Male smallmouth bass with female characteristics namely immature egg cells in their testes were discovered in the drainage areas of the Susquehanna Delaware
and Ohio rivers according to a new study led by the U s. Geological Survey (USGS). Such abnormalities are linked to estrogen-mimicking chemicals
and herbicides and human sources from wastewater treatment plant effluent and other sewage discharges study author Vicki Blazer a fish biologist with the USGS said in a statement.
and testosterone interfering with the fish's ability to reproduce. Bass seem to be especially prone to becoming intersex
when exposed to estrogenic compounds Blazer and colleagues said. Researchers with the USGS previously found intersex smallmouth bass in the Potomac river Basin similarly linked to endocrine-disrupting chemicals or EDCS.
For the new study Blazer and colleagues collected fish from 16 sites in the Susquehanna Delaware and Ohio river basins.
Intersex males were found at every site where smallmouth bass were collected and the severity of their condition was generally worse in places just downstream from wastewater treatment plants the researchers found.
The researchers also sampled white suckers and redhorse suckers. Neither species showed signs of intersex characteristics
although the team did find an egg cell precursor in the blood of some white suckers.

Poachers are escalating the global war on wildlife through advanced technologies and techniques. In Asia they are hacking into the signals from tigers'satellite collars to find

Or instead drone technicians might envision Congo forest eco-guards getting a closer and safer look at what appears be a group of well-armed ivory poachers near a salt lick.

With these advances we can do more than catch poachers: We can prevent the killing in the first place.

The real mystery is the fish. Most people would probably expect the ancient Egyptians living along the Nile to have eaten loads of fish.
However despite considerable cultural evidence there seems to have been little fish in their diet. There is abundant evidence for fishing in Egyptian wall reliefs
and models (both spear and net fishing) and fish shows up in offering lists. There is also a lot of archeological evidence for fish consumption from sites such as Gaza
and Amama said Spence who added that some texts indicated that a few fish species were consumed not due to religious associations.
All this makes it a bit surprising that the isotopes should suggest that fish was consumed not widely.

In the summer the penguins dive for tiny lanternfishes about 250 miles (400 kilometers) from the archipelago returning every three to five days to feed their chicks.
The lanternfishes congregate in an ocean region called the polar front where cold polar water meets the warmer tropical water creating a sharp temperature gradient.
Current models predict that unmitigated climate change will push the polar front south taking the penguins'summer staple of lanternfishes farther from the islands.
