 Near the spring and its cool, clear waters, brown trout swim upstream. As the river flows downstream along this small coastal waterway, the current weakens, the temperature rises, and other species take their place. Look for pike, eels, freshwater mussels, crayfish... and after the pond and its carp, the freshwater eventually flows into the estuary and its inhabitants, accustomed to the relentless ebb and flow of the tides—this is where the ocean begins...

"Freshwater accounts for only 2.5% of the water on the planet. The rest is all saltwater. It is a rare resource that must be protected."

 

"There are about thirty species of fish in Brittany’s rivers, but they are also home to numerous mammals, birds, insects, mollusks, reptiles, amphibians, and exceptional plant life."

 

"Some of our carp are 30 years old. They are among the oldest fish in the aquarium."
