The aquaculture industry is one of the most secretive industries, with very few people knowing how fish are farmed. Fish farms are basically floating factory farms, where fish often spend their brief lives confined in cramped, dirty and lice-ridden pens, waiting to be sucked up onto boats for slaughter or transport to land.  According to Salmon Scotland, the water-fish ratio is 98.5% to 1.5%. However, they do not specify how this is measured.  The footage that our investigators collected in Scotland in late 2022 clearly shows trout and salmon crammed into pens, where they have little room. According to fish experts, besides facilitating the spread of infectious diseases and lice, crowding causes stress to these fish and can lead to aggressive behaviours like cannibalism.  Learn more about what the aquaculture industry doesn't want you to know: https://bit.ly/3HkKPwf 📹 Watch the full investigation here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzc0_0chjqM ✍🏻 Sign the petition calling for stronger legal protections for fish: http://bit.ly/3ZtQR4K 💙 Support our work here: http://bit.ly/3IEENHl #fishfarming #aquaculture #salmonfarming #troutfarming #fishwelfare #animalrights Wed, 02 Sep 2026 05:50:22 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://video.animalequality.org https://video.animalequality.org/client/assets/images/icons/icon-1500x1500.png https://video.animalequality.org/videos/watch/ff079d2c-fcaa-4429-bea0-1a64efd233be All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://video.animalequality.org/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
