11471, Learned behavior - through generations
Posted by swimbait, Wed Nov-04-09 12:25 PM
There is a very interesting article today in the Wall Street Journal about a species of deer in Europe that lives in the area where the Berlin Wall used to sit. The deer, generations later, still avoid the area where the wall used to be.

Here's the article:

So the question in my mind is, do fish act like this? Part of me sure thinks that they do. Part of me thinks that it doesn't even take a generation. There are certain spots on certain lakes that have gone from being phenomenal, to being wiped out never to see a bass again. These bass weren't killed, but they were caught.

Sure something to think about!
