Today Bill Foster (the science monster) came to Groton with a great activity to test feeding behavior in our young trout. At this point our trout have only seen the supplied fish food which we've sprinkled on top. We were testing whether or not the fish would instinctively recognize live daphnia as prey or not. We recorded how many were eaten in 20 second intervals and analyzed the results. Here is a video from today's lab.
