The network has information about a fresh study conducted by scientists from the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague. They put the fish on methamphetamine, proving that they are also addicted to drugs.
Thus, the specialists wanted to draw attention to the fact that very often narcotic substances are discharged into wastewater, writes TJ. This, in turn, harms the fish.
As part of the study, researchers kept 60 red trout in a pool of dissolved methamphetamine for eight weeks. The concentration was reported to be around 1 microgram per liter. In parallel, 60 fish were in a pool of clean water.
As a result, all the fish were placed in the third common pool. There were two taps in it: from one came water with methamphetamine, from the other – pure water. As a result, the trout that had already “dealt” with the drug preferred to gather around the first tap. At the same time, the trout from the second pool spent their time at the second tap – the one with clean water.
