Salmon farm are herring farms! To ensure a thriving marine ecosystem where herring can flourish, it’s time for fish farms to come out of the ocean! 🌱💔 #biglittlefish #herring #MarineHealth #ProtectOurOceans #fishfarmsout

One year ago today, Cermaq’s sea lice levels were 15 times over the Ahousaht limit at their Ross Pass salmon farm—15x!

Ahousaht's sea lice threshold for the critical out-migration period (February-July) is 1.5 lice per fish. During 2024, Cermaq exceeded this limit multiple times at various farms!

🌱 Spring has arrived, and with it, young salmon begin their incredible journey to the sea. 🐟 #wildsalmon #fishfarmsout #protectwhatyoulove
