John Amato reports that RFK Junior's recent visit to a Nez Perce hatchery raises serious concerns about his judgment. Allowing lampreys—notorious for their parasitic ways—to suck his blood appears more about seeking validation than sound medical practice. This questionable stunt questions his decision-making priorities as the head of Health and Human Services.

What impact are #beavers having on fish? James Macarthur tells us! In Tayside, using #environmental DNA (#eDNA), he found that there was no effect of beavers on #AtlanticSalmon and #lamprey. Beavers also had a positive effect on #EuropeanEel. There was a negative effect of pike on Atlantic salmon #FSBI2025

I remember seeing lamprey on lake trout we used to catch in the Finger Lakes when I was a kid - the stuff of nightmares!!

It's great to hear that they've been successful in significantly reducing their populations!!

Neuro-robotic experiments are fascinating. I remember the excitement when this team (almost 25 years ago) connected a lamprey fish’s brain to a robotic system. It was able to move its ‘vehicle’ towards lights. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1043001.stm

But for obvious reasons, fungi are another thing entirely.

BBC NEWS You are in: Sci/Tech Monday, 27 November, 2000, 12:03 GMT Fish-brained robot at Science Museum Lamprey brain research could lead to improved prosthetics.

A robot that is controlled by the brain of a fish has gone on display at the Science Museum, London, UK. Sensors mounted on the machine send "visual" signals to the lamprey's brain which, in turn, transmits instructions to the robot's motors. The part of the brain used in the experiment normally keeps the lamprey upright in the water. When connected up correctly, the organ can guide the robot towards a light source. This is trespassing on nature but ... it's worth it if it leads to new knowledge and better prosthetic limbs Scientists at Prof Sandro Mussa- Ivaldi Northwestern University, Chicago, US, developed the system to study how human and animal brains control movement. The intention of this, and similar, research is to learn lessons that will aid the development of better artificial limbs.

Researchers in Chicago have built a cyborg, a half-living, half-robot creature which connects the brain of an eel-like fish to a computer and is capable of moving towards lights. The device, developed at a research centre owned by Evanston's Northwestern University

#Scientists find #endangered #lamprey #fish in #Queensland, 1400 km north of its previous known range https://phys.org/news/2024-05-scientists-ancient-endangered-lamprey-fish.html paper: https://www.int-res.com/abstracts/esr/v53/p547-553/

"Prior to this study, the species was widely believed to only live in a few streams along a 170 km stretch of coastline near the #NSW / #Victoria border... With this enormous extension of its geographic range, Australian brook lamprey becomes the only lamprey species in the world to live in truly #tropical waters."

@mk30 This is a really interesting article, thank you - especially on doubts, and minds changed by new insights & experience. Also glad of its link to the EU Water Framework Directive - useful ideas here for many countries!

Lampreys are part of an ancient superclass of jawless fish, called Agnatha. This group of fish evolved over 450 million years ago, making them one of the oldest living lineages in the world. Jawless fish are older than dinosaurs and even older than trees and have survived at least four mass extinction events.

From the Petromyzontidae family and a part of Agnathan fishes dating back to the Ordovician Period, its the #Lamprey! What else do you know about Lamprey for #FisheriesFriday?

Scenes from the zoo: one polar bear enjoying the rain on her nose, the other watching people tv, stacks of turtles and lampreys looking like alien monsters.

A polar bear (I think Amelia Grey) watching the zoo staff working. Apparently they set up the enclosure so the bears could come in here and watch people tv when they wanted.

Two stacks of turtles enjoying a heat lamp on a cool day.

Lampreys with their teethy mouths pressed up against the glass of their aquarium.

A polar bear (I think it's Nora) gazing up into the falling rain. She was having fun moving her nose in different directions presumably either feeling the rain or maybe smelling things?
