TGIF: Salmon Dance
Posted on: October 5, 2007 7:14 AM, by CR McClain
Here it is, you have earned it! Still trying to figure out the salmon which doesn't really look like a salmon at all. It might pass as a subyearling Chinook from a long distance. Someone who knows salmon please feel free to comment further. Regardless, love the video and song.

Don't know much about fishery
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about salmon or snook
Don't know much about how squirrel fish look
But I do know that I love YouTube
(apologies to Sam Cooke)
Thanks for the great video!

Sure doesn't look like a salmon to me.

It's not a salmon. It's Pygocentrus nattereri, the Red-Bellied Piranha.

If they ditched the creepy kid, I'd like it better.
