Photographs taken by the Scottish Government's Fish Health Inspectorate – slipped out unnoticed in April 2019 – reveal severely damaged farmed salmon at The Scottish Salmon Company's Strondoir Bay salmon farm in Loch Fyne in February 2019.
And here's photos from a Fish Health Inspectorate visit to The Scottish Salmon Company's salmon farm at Portree in February 2019 – including "visible damage to the heads of fish", skeletal muscle necrosis, dermatitis, lesions "likely associated with mechanical damage", anorexia, bilateral exopthalmia, petechial haemorrhaging, salmon gill poxvirus, Neoparamoeba perurans (the causative agent of Amoebic Gill Disease), Paranculeospora theridon, Vibrio spp, Photobacterium sp and Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis virus:
Strangely, the Mad Men at The Scottish Salmon Company (which is scheduled to be sold off by the end of this month) didn't choose any of the photos above to market their 'Lochlander' salmon.
Nor does The Scottish Salmon Company's marketing video include the gruesome photos or shocking video footage from Strondoir Bay.
Here's horrific video footage shot by Scottish Salmon Watch at The Scottish Salmon Company's salmon farm at Strondoir Bay in May 2019:

Here's the Scottish Government's Fish Health Inspectorate 'Case Information' report dated February 2019 for The Scottish Salmon Company's salmon farm at Strondoir Bay – including details of "very damaged" fins, "damage to the head and snout", "dorsal fin reduced to cartilage", "caudal fins severely damaged", "high numbers of mixed bacteria", lice infestation and positive tests for Vibrio spp and Moritella viscosa.
