Salmon Returning to the Issaquah Fish Hatchery
Witness salmon returning to the Issaquah Fish Hatchery. For these salmon, their journey - their whole lives actually - begin and ends here. Salmon leave the Hatchery as baby salmon. They are the result of eggs extracted from returning salmon - as you see here. Released in the Spring, these baby salmon will venture out to the Pacific Ocean to live - and hopefully avoid predators- and then, after a few years, begin their journey home, back to the Issaquah Fish Hatchery. But this time, it's their eggs that will be extracted and the whole cycle begins again. The Fish Hatchery also serves as an educational facility to learn more about the salmon's journey.
