Atlantic salmon enter Belarus - but another threat looms.

Atlantic salmon enter Belarus - but another threat looms.

After swimming 500–600 kilometers, brown trout and salmon enter small rivers in the Ostrava region for about a month to lay eggs. This is where the young hatch from the eggs, and after a few years the growing fish will return here to give birth.

Both species are on the red list, but that doesn't stop some people: they're drawn to the free-range fish soup. Only such a catch can easily end in a criminal case.
