Here's a Fish Health Inspectorate report relating to an inspection in September 2022 of Mowi's ASC-certified and RSPCA Assured salmon farm at Stulaigh off South Uist – published by the Scottish Government on 15 November 2022:

Here's a Fish Health Inspectorate report relating to an inspection in March 2022 for Mowi's RSPCA Assured Kingairloch salmon farm in Loch a Choire/Loch Linnhe (the report was just slipped out by the Scottish Government on 15 November 2022):

No wonder Mowi's PR people do not want the public from viewing such stomach-churning images (Marine Harvest was renamed Mowi in 2019 due to 'negative perception' in the name Marine Harvest).

Mowi: "the risk of people turning away from a healthy food such as salmon as a reaction to irresponsible use of photos for the sole purpose of creating fear in the consumer, is a risk to public health" https://t.co/u9Fk2kOkxz @MowiScotlandLtd @marinescotland @FergusEwingMSP pic.twitter.com/M3AyD3jMTm

Thankfully for consumers, the Scottish Government ignored Mowi's protestations – and legal arguments against disclosure from lawyers representing Norskott Havbruk (Scottish Sea Farms) and The Scottish Salmon Company (now called Bakkafrost Scotland) – and the floodgates have been opened to more and more gruesome photos.
