Interesting Facts About Trout
Here are some interesting facts about trout:
Where Do Trout Live?
Trout are commonly observed in cool and transparent streams and lakes, with some species also exhibiting anadromous traits. Their natural distribution spans across North America, Northern Asia, and Europe.
Trout are typically found in cool and clear streams and lakes, with water temperatures ranging from 50–60 °F. Many species of trout also have anadromous strains, enabling them to migrate between freshwater and saltwater environments.
When young, trout are referred to as troutlet, troutling, or fry. They have a natural distribution across North America, northern Asia, and Europe. In the 19th century, amateur fishing enthusiasts introduced several trout species to Australia and New Zealand, which resulted in the displacement and endangerment of various native upland fish species.
The introduced species included brown trout from England and rainbow trout from California. The rainbow trout in New Zealand still exhibit their steelhead tendencies, migrating up rivers during winter for spawning.
