The Salmon of Knowledge Free
FREE THE SALMON OF KNOWLEDGE PDF none | none | 21 Feb 2013 | Poolbeg Press Ltd | 9781842235942 | English | Dublin, Ireland Legend of Finn Mac Cumhaill and the Salmon of Knowledge According to the story, an ordinary salmon ate nine The Salmon of Knowledge that fell into the Well of Wisdom an Tobar Segais from nine hazel trees that surrounded the well. By this act, the salmon gained The Salmon of Knowledge the world's knowledge. The first person to eat of its flesh would in turn gain this knowledge. The poet Finn Eces or Finegas spent seven years fishing for The Salmon of Knowledge salmon. Finally Finn caught the salmon and gave the fish to Fionn, his servant and son of Cumhaillwith instructions to cook it but on no account to eat any of it. Fionn cooked the salmon, turning The Salmon of Knowledge over and over, but when he touched the fish with his thumb to see if it was cooked, he burnt his finger on a drop of hot cooking fish fat. Fionn sucked on his burned finger to ease the pain. Little did Fionn know that all of the salmon's wisdom had been concentrated into that one drop of fish fat. When he brought the cooked meal to Finn Eces, his master saw that the boy's eyes shone with a previously unseen The Salmon of Knowledge. Finn Eces asked Fionn if he had eaten any of the salmon. Answering no, the boy explained what had happened. Finn Eces realized that Fionn had received the wisdom of the salmon, so gave him the rest of the fish to eat. -

Anthropogenic Influence and Conservation Status of Autochthonous Fish Fauna from Lake Ohrid
Anthropogenic Influence and Conservation Status of Autochthonous Fish Fauna from Lake Ohrid Trajce Talevski, Hydrobiological Institute, Naum Ohridski, 50, 6000 Ohrid, R.Macedonia, email: [email protected] Dragana Milosevic, Department of biology, Faculty of Science and Mathematics, University of Montenegro, Podgorica. Montenegro email: [email protected] Aleksandra Talevska, Faculty of Science and Mathematics, Institute for biology, University St. Kiril and Metodij, Skopje, R.Macedonia email: [email protected] Abstract Lake Ohrid is transboundary lake between R.Macedonia and R.Albania. It is the deepest lake of the Balkan, with a maximum depth of 297 and a mean depth of 155 m. Lake Ohrid is special as such, by far the most spectacular quality is its impressive endemism from cyprinid and salmonid fish. This paper is result of long-term researches of ichthyofauna from Lake Ohrid. The materials for researches were collected by day and nighttime’s experimental fishing with various fishing gill net. Conservation status of autochthonous fish fauna from Lake Ohrid was determinate according to IUCN (2001) and Kotellat and Freyhof (2007). Key words: anthropogenic influence, autochthonous fish fauna, conservation status, Lake Ohrid Intoduction IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data List), founded in 1948, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of plant and animal species. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) is the world's main authority on the conservation status of species. The IUCN Red List is set upon precise criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousands of species and subspecies. -

J. Agric. Sci., Supplement 1, 21: 61–67 Prespa, Ohrid and Skadar are the largest lakes on the Balkan Peninsula. The native fi sh population consists, in total, of fi fty species. These lakes represent centers of biodiversity of ichthyofauna of the Balkans and many fi sh species are strictly protected and placed on the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) red list. In fact, one species is listed as Extinct (EX), three are Critically Endangered (CR), three are Endangered (EN), eight are Vulnerable (VU), twenty-four are Least Concern (LC), fi ve are listed as Data Defi cient (DD) and six species are Not Evaluated (NE). At the same time Prespa, Ohrid and Skadarlakes are signifi cant fi shing areas where commercial fi shing is conducted.

Nga ana tjetër në shumë fauna të ndryshme të Shqipërisë janë dhënë edhe emrat shqip të llojeve të kafshëve, si tek Bino e tjerë (2006) për shpendët dhe gjitarët, Poljakov e tjerë (1958) dhe Rakaj (1995) për peshqit e tjerë. Mirëpo në të gjitha rastet vërehet mungesa e një bashkëpunimi të frytshëm të gjuhëtarëve me specialistët faunistë, çka duket tek mungesa e specifikimit dhe shpjegimit të saktë të emrave, ose tek varfëria e emrave, për shkak të mos- njohjes së fondit të tyre. Nevojat për të zgjidhur në tërësi këto probleme dhe për ti dhënë lexuesve një fjalor sa më të plotë, kanë qenë motivet kryesore të punës për hatimin e tij dhe për të qënë më i vlefshëm, u hartua në tre gjuhë, latinisht – shqip – anglisht. Ky fjalor përmban emrat e 1140 llojeve të kafshëve të Shqipërisë. -

They have an amazing life-cycle: the young salmon swim out of the freshwater of the river, to the salty sea of the north Atlantic to feed and grow, then return to the river when they are big enough and swim up the river to spawn. -
