Releasing known-age and marked fish into the wild is a rigorous age validation [method], as the absolute age of the recaptured fish is known without error. Since the released fish are generally less than [one] year old, recaptured fish will have spent the majority of their lives in natural surroundings. ... You can estimate the absolute age of the fish by estimating the age at tagging (using the removed scale) added to the time at liberty. 1, record 2, English, - absolute%20age

La remise à l'eau des poissons marqués d’âge connu dans la nature est une méthode rigoureuse de validation de l'âge, car l'âge absolu des poissons recapturés est connu avec certitude. Comme les poissons remis à l'eau ont généralement moins [d’un] an, les individus recapturés auront passé la majeure partie de leur vie dans leur milieu naturel. [...] Vous pouvez déterminer l'âge absolu du poisson en ajoutant l'âge estimé au moment de l'étiquetage(à l'aide des écailles prélevées) au temps passé en liberté. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%A2ge%20absolu

In almost 5 decades, WWF (formerly known as the World Wildlife Fund) has become one of the world's largest and most respected independent conservation organizations. As the world’s leading conservation organization, we have a hugely important mission. We’re here to stop the degradation of our planet’s natural environment, and build a future where people live in harmony with nature. We do this by: – protecting biodiversity – the magnificent array of living things that inhabit our planet and the places where they live – reducing humanity’s footprint on the natural world by challenging wasteful consumption and pollution, and promoting sustainable ways to use the Earth’s resources. 2, record 4, English, - World%20Wide%20Fund%20for%20Nature

Le WWF International, dont le siège social est en Suisse, est le plus important organisme indépendant voué à la conservation de la nature au monde.
