0:00
so older bigger fish have more again
0:02
because they just have more time to
0:03
accumulate it in their muscle um smaller
0:07
younger fish or fish that Beed lower on
0:09
tropic levels are um less contaminated H
0:13
and does this the Mercury that gets into
0:15
an older fish if would it ever recede a
0:18
bit or is it just keep going it stays
0:19
and gets higher and higher and never
0:21
drops down the levels yeah it we say bio
0:25
accumulates over time um just kind of
0:28
builds up in the in the muscle tissue as
0:30
they get older so just kind of speaks to
0:32
the importance of trying to prevent in
0:34
invasive species from spreading around
0:36
uh in terms of like mitigating like get
0:38
it out getting it out I don't I don't
0:41
have any solution for that like you said
0:43
Mercury's been around for a long time
0:45
and it's been a human health concern for
0:46
a long time um and we have done as a
0:49
society quite a bit of work to reduce
0:51
how much of it is being deposited out on
0:54
the landscape by you know regulating
0:56
industry and things like that
