Pink Salmon Fish Rigged and Animated 3D Model

A realistic pink salmon (humpback salmon) with a custom rig and four hand-made animations: swimming, fast swimming, turn and caught on the hook. Low-poly mesh with PBR textures, ready for games, fishing simulators, underwater scenes, aquariums and nature visualization.

The same rig and animations work in 3ds Max, Blender and any FBX-compatible engine (Unity, Unreal).
