  • @sgrdpdrsn Also look at this video:

    "Marine Harvest Norway: Our People and Our Salmon"

  • Healthy salmon and wealthy wrasse-farmers:

    US$200 paid for each live fish weighing 0.3 kg!

    Google this:(fvn.no > Ny oppdrettsfisk er gull verdt) This money will be paid in Norway for delivery of wrasse-fishes to the salmon farming of fish! These fishes eliminates the need for chemicals and antibiotics in salmon farming, because they eat lice (Gyrodactilus salaris) directly from the skin of salmon.

    See 2 friends diving among this kind of fish at the Norwegian coast:

    DIVING IN BISHOP HARBOR

  • how about we stop fishing wild salmon , for a change and then try solutions for destroying lice , i heard there are fish which eat them , i think its called a wrasse . cud also think of farming salmon in closed water bodies.

  • record runs have returned because those salmon turned left out of the fraser river and then headed around Victoria and the west side of the island.....the ones that didn't make it, turned right and had to swim past the gauntlet of filthy diseased fish farms.....and fyi....alexandra is not being funding whatsoever ....where did you hear that propaganda?

  • @AlaskaRanchedSalmon You,ve got that right. A well financed nutter at that. Roll another dubie Alex

  • A grossly exaggerated view of an American activist. Record runs have returned the past two years.

  • i cant believe that norwegian govermentally owned companies have been allowed to run their buissness this recklessly both in norway and abroad. this is like coca cola stealing drinking water in 3rd world countries, when did we become as bad as these capitalist villans?

  • Wild Atlantic Salmon being destroyed in Western Scotland-they will never return

    one day -problem sea lice-damn you fish farmers!-your greed is insatiable

  • @robin44 It takes three pounds of fish to create one pound of farmed salmon, which pretty much destroys your argument.

  • I'm ashamed of being Norwegian due to the farmed salmon industry we have here. There are people working against this industry, but it's a hard fight.

    Corruption in Norwegian politics? Oh yes. :(
