Huchen

Huchen (Hucho hucho) swimming against the current underwater in the Drina river. Border between Bosnia and Serbia. Liquid Art

For those interested in the status of the mighty but endangered Huchen or “Danube Salmon” (Hucho hucho, rather than the Hucho taimen of Siberia), you may find a release from Save the Blue Heart of Europe of interest. The article also addresses the endangered Adriatric Trout (Salmo obtusirostris). Save the Blue Heart of Europe is a Balkan conservation organization I have long followed. Another regional conservation group, RiverWatch, provides excellent information on the Huchen as well.

Read “In Search of Smallmouth Trout and Huchen“, at Save the Blue Heart of Europe.
