Humpy

Humpy is a kind of fish called a pink salmon. It is called humpy because during breeding season, the males develop a big hump on their back, which makes them look a bit funny. These fish live in the ocean but swim up rivers and streams to lay their eggs in the gravel beds. People catch humpy fish for food and sport, and it is an important source of food for animals like bears who live near the rivers where they spawn. Humpy is a fun word to say, but it's also the name of a fish!
