AlaskaSeelachs

AlaskaSeelachs is the German name for Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma). It is a species of cod found in the North Pacific Ocean. Alaska pollock are small to medium-sized fish, typically growing up to 90 centimeters in length and weighing around 15 kilograms. They have a slender body, a prominent lower jaw, and three dorsal fins.

These fish are found in both demersal and pelagic zones, inhabiting a wide range of depths from shallow coastal waters to the deep ocean. Alaska pollock are schooling fish, often forming large aggregations. Their diet consists mainly of smaller fish, crustaceans, and squid.

Alaska pollock is a commercially important fish, particularly in the United States, Russia, and Japan. It is a key species in the Bering Sea ecosystem. The fish is widely consumed and processed into various food products, including surimi, fish sticks, and fillets. Its mild flavor and flaky texture make it a versatile ingredient in many cuisines. Sustainable fishing practices are important for maintaining healthy Alaska pollock populations.
