Does Pink Salmon reproduce asexually or sexually?
Pink salmon reproduce by spawning sexually. After returning to where they were originated (at least usually they go back to roughly where they were born), the females deposit their eggs and one or more males fertilize them as they fall into the redd (a "redd" is a nest the female scooped out with her tail prior to releasing her eggs). It requires both the female and males to complete the process - hence "sexual" reproduction as opposed to "asexual". All healthy salmon are either male or female; they don't change sex.
