The Pacific Salmon Forum PSF - a non-biased scientific body ordered to look into the sea lice issue found that the studies Morton was citing (her own), were incorrect. Co-author Marty Krkosek agreed. Morton and Krkosek were asked to “recalibrate”. She concluded that “the survival of the pink salmon cohort was not statistically different from a reference region without salmon farms.” That’s right – no extinction. Not even a difference.
UPDATE!!!!! (it's 2010). Now we have record returns of sockeye salmon in British Columbia. Great pink salmon and chinook salmon too.
So, it's clear this "scare" was a trumped up tactic to try to scare the consumer away from a healthy food source - farm-raised salmon. The only thing Mortan has right is when she said " I dont have a great set of credentials."
WOOT LATERRA AND COSY! aha i'm the 13 year old cousin. c: its very important for us to stand up in what we believe in, we need to get the fish farms to listen that we need these wild salmon not only for us like laterra had said but for the animals it will disrupt the food chain.
