@SaveOurLochs

Fished this loch over 50 years, fortunate to live next to it for the past 10 and watched it get polluted for the last 2 years. Why is this allowed !

This is what farmed Salmon looks like before it goes in your oven. Its a disgrace that this is sold by ALDI for a family's Xmas dinner. Just hide where they scraped the lice off and put in the oven then serve to your family!!
Salmon on sale in Aldi Oban where they left it skin side up which is usually hidden so you cant see the lice damage . This is sold as "Healthy food "

It's difficult getting near salmon farms to see what's going on. Aggressive and intimidating behaviour from @scotseafarms If they have nothing to hide, they should welcome us. @AButeWDunbarPol @policescotland @marinescotland

Should campaigners aim to eradicate fish farms or reform their current practices? riddle.com/showcase/329143/o… They will never reform the way they produce Salmon and they will never fix the damage they have already done!!

We've done it! Thanks to everyone who donated to the JustGiving page to buy a replacement phone for the victim of a savage attack by a Kames salmon farmer. Let's hope it makes living next to a salmon farm at Christmas a little more tolerable.

The fact of the matter is that at Loch Tralaig in 2020 they used 2775 kg in 3 weeks and last year used a vast amount more than this but as they do not keep any records Sepa estimates usage of all chemicals, stock levels, mortality amounts etc how can this be allowed.

Seems the kames scientists, Sepa, Apha, Environmental Health etc rate this site as POOR Why is this company allowed to use a carcinogenic chemical without keeping any records. Also no mortality, feed, stock levels or any other records seem to be needed here ?? @obantimes

Replying to @SaveOurLochs
Most people I know out here on Harris agree with you. Not least those living near enough the cages to have to shut their windows when they’re sucking out the dead & watch the hydrogen peroxide tankers come and go, and those whose living depends on the wild salmon.

Hi all, well the fish farm have left the loch for the winter but unfortunatly we are left with the aftermath, stench and detritus, as well as non native salmon escapees. We depthe tested the loch around the cages and find its less than 8m !!

Well progress has been made. The sceptics are now saying they don't know if fish experience pain, not that fish don't experience pain. This is big! Great commentaries from @CulumBrown and @IlaFrance on opinion by @TroyVettese #fishsci #fishwelfare issues.org/debating-fish-pai…
