Farmed salmon have "Deformed or shortened fins (especially the dorsal, pectoral & tail fins); Deformed or shortened gill covers (may be only on one side); Deformed or shortened snout" @fms_scotland @marinescotland https://t.co/5vWWxksMXz @MowiScotlandLtd @SSPOsays @FergusEwingMSP

If Mowi's salmon at their storm-battered farm in the Kilbrannan Sound were not gruesomely deformed and disfigured before last week's incident then it looks like tens of thousands of fish were battered to death when at least three cages were damaged by Storm Ellen (photos and footage thanks to Corin Smith).

In 2018, the 'Beast from the East' skinned and flayed alive 300,000 salmon at the same Mowi farm.
The Sunday Mail reported in June 2018: "Gutted – 300,000 salmon are killed as storm batters fish farm"
