Plants and animals of water bodies. Fresh water animals

The central zone of Russia is considered to be the central region of the European part of the country, bordering Belarus in the west, and the Volga region in the east in the east. These areas are characterized by a temperate climate and the presence of expanses of water, where the inhabitants of rivers and lakes live, in which there are favorable conditions for feeding and reproduction.

Russia is great, but only the space of the European part of the country is considered to be its middle zone, numerous

river animals,

along the banks of the rivers you can find otters' burrows, beavers' huts. Muskrats hunt for fish in the water, not so long ago even a crocodile was found in one reservoir, although, of course, it is difficult to attribute it to the permanent inhabitants of the rivers of Russia. Voles water mice live in small minks, there are a lot of animals here and each one finds food for himself and his children, material for building a dwelling and a place so that predators do not find it.

Beavers prefer to settle on the banks of slow-flowing rivers, they try to gnaw tree trunks so that they fall in the right place, they fell aspen, birch, and willow. From trunks and branches, animals build quite strong and large half-timbers, they dig a hole nearby, in a steep slope, make several exits, and one of them is always under water. Thus, animals protect themselves and their offspring from attack by predators, if there is no suitable steep nearby, a hut is built from branches and branches, from which there are also several "doors".

Beavers store food for the future, for the winter, usually the "refrigerator" is located under the overhanging shore and is masked by branches, even in frosts the water does not freeze there and the animals can take food at any time and do not starve. Animals feed exclusively on parts of plants, these are the bark of trees, and the grassy parts of water lilies and algae, the teeth are very long, during the felling of trees they grind down a lot, but then they grow back if there is no solid food, the teeth grow so much that the beaver cannot close its mouth and dies.

Muskrats are also river animals that live in central Russia, as well as in Siberia and the Far East, animals are very similar to rats, but much larger - the body length can be up to 40 centimeters. The animal has an elongated muzzle with long incisors, which easily gnaws plants under water, however, if there is not enough plant food, the muskrat can catch and eat a frog or a small fish. They live in families, build huts like beavers or dig holes, males mark their territory and members of other families cannot come here to feed, when the children grow up, the mother kicks them out of the house and they are looking for a new place to live.

In central Russia there are many different rivers and streams, next to which it is free for animals leading a semi-aquatic lifestyle, the largest of them are muskrats and beavers, there are also smaller animals - water voles and otters, which also find their place on the river.

The otter swims and dives perfectly in the hunt for fish, can spend almost 2 minutes under water, the animal is perfectly adapted for swimming, it has an elongated body, a long tail, and a flat head. Predators mainly catch fish, but they can also catch prey on the ground, moving quite far from the river, here they look for small animals - mice, rabbits, they can catch and eat a careless bird. Singles - mate in water, pregnancy lasts 2 months, at this time the otter finds a suitable place for a lair, arranges it in a cave or digs a hole, gives birth to 2 or 4 puppies, which become adults after 2 years.

The otter can be easily tamed and kept as a pet (she recognizes the owner and plays with him), or used on the farm, fishermen sometimes teach her to drive fish into the nets, the animal accepts such work as a game, but receives a reward for it in the form of especially tasty pieces. The animal has wonderful fur with a long awn and thick undercoat, a fur coat made of such fur is highly valued and can last a very long time, so otters are often hunted and their population is decreasing.

In floodplains, in swamps, another rodent lives - a water vole, which is also called a water rat, its body length is up to 25 centimeters, it has a rather long tail. In summer, it digs a hole near the water, and lives there until autumn, with the onset of cold days it moves to drier places, where it arranges original warehouses with stocks of potatoes, or the roots of other plants. From the end of spring to the beginning of autumn, the rat can bring 2 or three broods of cubs, which are raised in the nesting chamber. It feeds on soft parts of plants, sometimes it catches mollusks, insects, and frogs.

In the basins of the Volga, Don and Oka rivers, there is a muskrat, almost the same size as the water vole, but the animal is fatter, and therefore its weight is larger - about 500 grams. The desman eats insects, it can catch a worm or a snail, however, it also eats the soft parts of plants with pleasure. They live in burrows that resemble a labyrinth inside, the animal marks the passages with a secret from the musk gland, the smell of which is attractive to invertebrates, so there is no need to hunt, the food will come by itself and sit on the dining table.

A very stormy life takes place along the banks of rivers and lakes in central Russia, otters, muskrats, beavers build their houses and burrows, stock up on food, give birth to cubs. Biologists are trying to preserve the animal world of Russia, setting up nature reserves and limiting the time for hunting animals.

Russia is rich not only in minerals, but on its territory there are many animals that live on land and lead a semi-aquatic lifestyle. Animals destroy harmful insects, clean up coastal forests, or provide fine furs.

Rivers, fresh lakes, reservoirs, streams and swamps are inhabited by thousands of species of living organisms: from microscopic ciliates-shoes to giant fish and large freshwater birds.

Interestingly, only 3% of the total amount of water on the planet is fresh water. Despite such an insignificant figure, the freshwater fauna is extremely diverse, and it is worth getting to know its most interesting representatives better.

Freshwater fish

Of all the fish known to science, about 41% of the species live in fresh water. Among them are anadromous (anadromous) species that live in the seas but breed exclusively in fresh water, such as salmon and herring. Another thing is catadromous fish, on the contrary, they spawn in salt waters, and then return to their native rivers. A vivid example of this is the river eel - a ray-finned fish with a serpentine body.

And there are exclusively freshwater species, for which even a fraction of % of salt in the water becomes fatal, for example, the endemic fish of Lake Baikal - the Baikal omul and burbot - the only freshwater species of the cod-like order. What other fish live in fresh water?

Pike

This is a predatory fish known to everyone, the heroine of fairy tales and legends. The spine of the famous Heilbronn pike is stored in the cathedral of the German city of Mannheim. It is said that King Frederick II of Germany caught this pike in the autumn of 1230, ringed it and released it. The fish was caught only in 1497, when it grew to 5.7 m!



Pikes live in thickets of stagnant and slow-flowing freshwater bodies of Eurasia and North America, and are occasionally found in desalinated areas of the seas.

catfish

Another large freshwater animal, which, however, can live in the salty waters of the Aral Sea. Modern catfish were shredded, and in the old days fishermen caught specimens up to 3-5 m long and weighing up to 400 kg.


Share -->

In Russia, they didn’t like catfish, they were afraid, they called it the “devil’s horse”, they disdained meat and only made stuffing for pies from tails. And Muslims generally do not eat the meat of scaleless fish, including catfish.

Zander

A representative of the perch family, a typical predator with large fang-like teeth, an inhabitant of lake-river systems. The genus of pike perch includes 5 species, of which 4 are freshwater, and 1 is called sea pike perch.

Pike-perch feed on bleaks, sprats, minnows and various goby fish.

carp

This is one of the most famous lake and pond fish of the carp family. The golden carp is the most common, but the goldfish populations are sometimes formed only by females. In this case, they spawn with males of carp, bream, tench or goldfish and again produce females.

Carp

A fairly large fish over 1 m long and weighing about 20 kg, also known as the common carp. Among carp there are both freshwater populations and semi-anadromous ones that live in desalinated areas of the seas and spawn in rivers.

Beluga

This is the largest freshwater anadromous fish: the weight of individual specimens reaches 500 kg! Beluga lives in the Black, Azov and Caspian Seas, and spawns in rivers.


Beluga jumps out of the water.

Today, this fish is on the verge of survival and its fishing is strictly regulated. Beluga lays black caviar, which is considered the most valuable of all sturgeons. In Russia, 1 kg of real beluga caviar costs about 400 thousand rubles, and even more expensive abroad.

Golomyanka

An amazing fish with a transparent body, devoid of scales and a swim bladder, lives in the depths of Lake Baikal and is not found anywhere else. The golomyanka itself feeds on copepods, epishura and amphipods, but all Baikal fish, for example, taimen, burbot and pike, as well as the Baikal seal, willingly eat it. And the golomyanka does not spawn, but is a viviparous fish.

Squeaky killer whale

A very interesting fish of the catfish order, which, when pulled out of the water, begins to make creaking sounds. The height of the fish does not exceed 35 cm, but it can stand up for itself, spreading very prickly spikes in case of danger.

The killer whale lives only in the fresh waters of China, Vietnam and Laos, as well as in Primorye, in Lake Khanka.

Crayfish, amphibians and freshwater reptiles

Some types of higher crayfish, snakes, lizards, turtles and frogs live in fresh water. For some, rivers, lakes and swamps are their home throughout life, others need water during the breeding season, others simply swim well and hide in the water from enemies.

Crayfish

Broad-toed and narrow-toed crayfish are habitual animals of fresh water bodies that live in clear, low-lying waters. In recent years, broad-toed crayfish began to be replaced by an imported species - the American signal crayfish, which is more resistant to a fungal disease - crayfish plague.


Already

The genus of snakes includes 4 species, among which the water snake is especially attached to water - an olive-colored snake with black spots, from 1.3 to 1.5 m long. And the more familiar common snake with characteristic "yellow ears" spends most of its life on land , although it swims beautifully and can do without air for up to 30 minutes.

European bog turtle

This reptile is widely distributed in fresh water bodies of Eurasia and northwestern Africa. Prefers slow-flowing rivers, canals, lakes, ponds and swamps, swims and dives well, can do without oxygen for a long time.

The size of the European marsh turtle rarely exceeds 35 cm, it has a very long tail and a dark shell with small yellow markings.

Triton

The genus of newts includes 8 species, among them the common newt is the most famous. These amphibians spend a lot of time on land, but in early spring they go to fresh water for breeding, where females attach one egg at a time to the leaves of underwater vegetation.

In the water, newts eat mayflies and bloodworms, on land they get earthworms, but they themselves often become prey to waterfowl.

Freshwater birds

Many waterfowl spend most of their lives in fresh water, having all the necessary adaptations for this: a membrane between the fingers, dense plumage and a developed oil gland that secretes a fatty secret to lubricate feathers.

river ducks

This is an extensive genus of anseriform birds, including more than 50 species. You probably know the teal, mallard or crested and gray duck, but many have no idea about birds such as pintail, killer whale, shoveler or wigeon.

All these are river or noble ducks, lovers of settling in the coastal zone of fresh water bodies and on mudflats.

Half-fingered goose

The only species of the genus and family of semi-fingered geese with poorly developed swimming membranes. These are large geese up to 90 cm in size with contrasting black and white plumage and orange paws. These birds live in the floodplains and river valleys of Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea.

king egret

Another name for the bird is the shoebill. This is the only species of the genus and family of shoebills that lives only in the swamps of East Africa. With their beak, resembling a wooden shoe with a sharp hook, the birds deftly snatch their favorite food from the water - freshwater protopter fish, which, by the way, are popular with the local population because of the very tasty meat.

Royal herons also eat frogs, small turtles, catfish and tilapia.

Canadian goose

This is one of 8 species of black geese (geese), living in swamps, along the banks of rivers and reservoirs. The size of individuals in different parts of the range ranges from 55 to 110 cm. The head and neck of the birds are black with white spots on the cheeks and throat, the back is dark brown, and the belly is white.

The historical homeland of the Canadian goose is North America, but these birds were introduced and successfully settled down in Europe and New Zealand.

toadstools

Today, the genus of grebes includes 8 species of birds, very similar to loons. But unlike the latter, the paws of grebes are devoid of swimming membranes, however, each finger is equipped with a leathery fold resembling a blade.

The most famous is the great grebe or grebe living in the lakes and ponds of Europe, Asia, the northern regions of Australia, New Zealand and Africa.

Among the animals of fresh water, one cannot fail to mention the water shrew, a very rare species - the Chinese alligator from the Yangtze River, the otter, the beaver and, of course, the capybara - the largest modern rodent.

Pike is a strong predatory, river fish. Young pike is found weighing 2-3 kg, under favorable conditions it reaches 16-25 kg in weight, and as an exception, super-large weight. It spawns at the age of 3-5 years in small groups and pairs in early spring at full water, in backwaters, on small grassy places. Pike males are smaller in size, their body is narrower than that of females. Pike have a different color - from a green, grassy shade with transverse stripes to a dark brown color with worn spots. Pike hunts not only for river fish, but also for small waterfowl. Its spawning coincides with the passage of a waterfowl. And pike caviar falls on the bird's feathers, which carry it into the most remote reservoirs. If the melting of the ice is delayed, the pike spawns at the edges. She has an average fertility. The number of eggs can reach 215 thousand pieces, in especially large ones up to 1 million. Caviar develops normally in small, grassy and well-heated areas. Juveniles grow in good and feeding places, quickly reaching 20 cm in length and weighing 250 g or more by the end of the year. A lot of pike caviar dies during the rapid decline of high spring waters. Naturally, for this reason, the number of pike in water bodies is decreasing, which negatively affects the condition of the entire fish population. Some mistakenly consider pike to be a harmful predatory fish. Meanwhile, the pike is a water orderly, because. it cleanses the reservoir of weedy and weakened fish.

Perch

Favorite habitats of perch are underwater slopes of islands, flooded ridges, areas near large stones and snags lying at the bottom, deep steep areas with hard ground. In the river, perch usually lives in deep holes, places with a slow current. Hunts near piles of bridges, flooded trees, bushes and snags. He likes backwaters, sometimes overgrown with aquatic vegetation. From the thickets with lightning speed, he pounces on a fry or small fish swimming past.

Before the start of freeze-up, the perch often move, the flocks break up into smaller ones. After the formation of ice, the perch again gathers in flocks, grouping by age. In winter, with a decrease in water, the perch moves to deeper areas, grouping in whirlpools.

Perch spawning begins in May, and sometimes it drags on, and some specimens with milk get even in June. During spawning, they do not gather in large flocks. Caviar is usually laid near last year's aquatic vegetation, at a shallow depth.

It feeds on aquatic insects. Growing up, it becomes a predator.

High fecundity, 200-300 thousand or more eggs, the ability to destroy eggs and juveniles of other fish put the perch in a position of a competitor to more valuable fish.

Ruff

Ruff is a small fish, avoids strong currents, lives in deep places. It keeps near steep banks with trees hanging over the water among stones, in the heat it hides in the shade. Spawning at the end of May. It feeds on crustaceans, insect larvae, caviar and juveniles of other fish.

Taimen

Reaches a weight of 40 kg. For spawning, it rises to the upper reaches of the river. Spawning migration begins with ice drift. Spawning occurs on small rocky areas in May-June at a temperature of 9-12 degrees. Spawns eggs in nests in sand and pebbles.

After spawning, the taimen begins to gradually move to the lower reaches of the rivers. In the river stands in the whirlpools. Likes the confluence of small rivers. Keeps in groups, large - alone.

First, young taimen feed on invertebrates, then on small fish. An adult taimen is a typical predator, feeding on fish - dace, burbot, rarely seizing small rodents, frogs and ducklings.

Dace

Reaches a weight of 100-200 gr, rarely 400.

Lives in clean water. Prefers places with a moderate current, shallows with an average current, areas below riffles, near the mouths of flowing streams and rivers, water jets, below dams and bridges.

It spawns immediately after pike spawning, at a temperature of 6-7 degrees. Caviar sticks to reeds and pebbles.

It feeds on various insects, their larvae and algae (especially mulberry), as well as rare flies, mosquitoes, bloodworms, and grasshoppers. In spring it eats the eggs of other fish.

Gudgeon

This river schooling fish avoids cold water. In autumn it moves to deeper places with a muddy or sandy bottom near rifts, and in winter it slides into pits. Spawns in April-June in shallow places with rocky bottom. It feeds on bloodworms, mayfly larvae, small mollusks, caviar of other fish. Reaches a length of 22 cm and a weight of more than 100 grams.

Conclusion: Kii's fresh water is home to many species of fish. They eat a variety of foods. Some eat algae, others eat aquatic insects and mollusks. Some fish eat other fish and these are real predators.

In the spring, juveniles mainly feed on the eggs of other fish. Each species has its own favorite places, a certain form of behavior, the dependence of food on river vegetation and river plankton. Spawning of all fish species occurs in shallow coastal areas and depends on temperature phenomena. This means that a sharp decline in water can bring significant damage to the quantitative increase in fish stocks.

Fish - food source

The role of fish in human life is great. One of the elements in the human food chain is fish. Fish are a source of food and medicinal raw materials. In terms of nutritional value and taste properties, fish is not inferior to meat, but surpasses it in digestibility. Fish food, especially extractive substances of fish broth, causes an abundant secretion of gastric juice than meat.

The value of fish is determined by the presence of 15% to 26% proteins in its composition. Fish proteins contain 20 amino acids, of which 8 are indispensable for the human body (lysine, methionine, valine, leucine, threonine and phenylalanine). These amino acids are not synthesized in the human body and must be supplied in certain proportions with food. The absence of any of the listed amino acids in food causes a violation of human health.

Fish also contains fats up to 30%, vitamins and minerals up to 2%. In contrast to the fat of mammals, fish fat is liquid, because. contains a large amount of polyunsaturated fatty substances. The lack of such fatty acids in food disrupts cholesterol metabolism, which contributes to the development of atherosclerosis in humans, weakens the body's resistance to disease. River fish meat is recommended for students during exams, because. it stimulates the brain.

At all times, people caught fish for food, and it did not get smaller. Consequently, fish were caught in such numbers that allowed the species to recover, and the river water was clean.

The law prohibits the use of mass production of fish and animals. Specific measures to protect fish include the legally established minimum mesh size for fishing nets, the protection of spawning grounds and wintering pits, the rescue of juveniles, the fight against winter kills and water pollution.

Pike perch is a relative of perch, which lives only in clean water, provided with oxygen for its life and activity. There are no phosphates or other impurities in this fish. The growth of pike perch is 35 cm. Its maximum weight is 20 kg.

Pike perch meat is light and lean, but very tasty. It is saturated with phosphorus, chromium, sulfur, potassium, fluorine, cobalt, iodine and vitamin P. This fish is quite healthy in composition.

Bersh

Bersh also belongs to the perch family. Its height is 45 cm. The largest fish weight is 1.4 kg. This species lives in rivers that flow into the Black and Caspian Seas.

Bersh feeds on not very large fish, mainly gudgeon. The meat is similar to pike perch, but a little softer.

How to catch more fish?
