Video Exclusive: Secret Filming Exposes Horrific Welfare Abuse Inside RSPCA Assured Scottish Salmon Farms

 

 

$camon $cotland recently spent six days in the Sound of Mull and Loch Creran secretly filming inside RSPCA Assured salmon farms operated by Scottish Sea Farms (exclusive supplier to Marks & Spencer) – we successfully visited four salmon farms (Fiunary, Fishnish, Scallastle Bay and Creran) on six separate occasions early in the morning and after work hours in the evening between 3rd and 8th July 2022.   

 

 

 

Our exclusive video footage – and gruesome photos – represents damning evidence of welfare abuse and forms the basis of a welfare complaint filed today (11th July 2022) with Police Scotland's Wildlife Crime Unit, the Animal and Plant Health Agency, Marine Scotland, the SSPCA and the RSPCA (download via Welfare Complaint vs Scottish Sea Farms in Sound of Mull & Loch Creran 11 July 2022).  

 

 

 

 

 

Please read more via a press release and media backgrounder online here – and here's the horrific video footage (please feel free to share and tell your friends and family not to eat Scottish salmon):
