Gonad- and skin sample collection at Lillafüred Trout Farm

On the 13th of October we went for a field trip to Lillafüred in the company of Slovenian and Brazilian collegues. For diverse ongoing experiments of the researchers from the group, different samples were taken from the tiger trout individuals. Tiger trout is the hybrid of the species brown- and brook trout species and has a special pattern on the skin.
