Hi! I’m Jennifer Murphy-O’Connor, a Spanish student at Stirling University and I’d like your help for my final year project in marine biology. It’s about farmed salmon escapes into Scottish rivers.
- Salmon escapes are an accidental side effect of the aquaculture industry.
- Some people worry about the changes they may cause to wild fish.
- The recapture of farmed salmon by anglers is reported but we just don’t know how accurate the data is.
- How good are anglers and biologists at telling farmed from wild salmon? I want to find out!
