The eggs A hatch in shallow streams, releasing larvae, or alevins B, which within a few months become juvenile fish called parr. Parr, in turn, grow into 8-in. smolts C in about two years, and it is these small, silvery fish that make the improbable migration from freshwater river to saltwater ocean. Smolts that survive the trip--and plenty don't--spend four years at sea, feeding...
