Chum Salmon
Oncorhynchus keta
Adult chum salmon spend much of their lives feeding in coastal and open ocean waters. Their diet includes small fish, squid, and crustaceans, taken during active pursuit. Mature adults return to their natal freshwater systems to spawn, often travelling long distances without feeding.
