no! scottish salmon is farmed Atlantic salmon. NEVER buy farmed salmon! The fish farmers dye the food the fish eat, so they get a pink meat color. It's not natural at all. If the salmon you're buying doesn't say, what kind it is, don't buy it! the five kinds of wild salmon are- King or Chinook, Silver or Coho, Dog or Chum, Pink or Humpie, and the most poplar, Red or Sockeye. Any other name is farmed salmon and should be avoided at all costs, for your own health and safety.

Scottish salmon is typically farmed in the cold waters of Scotland and is known for its rich flavor and high-fat content, making it a popular choice for consumers. In contrast, wild King salmon from the Copper River in Alaska is highly prized for its superior taste, firm texture, and vibrant color, as it is caught in its natural habitat and has a more varied diet. Additionally, King salmon is known for its higher omega-3 fatty acids compared to farmed varieties. Overall, the primary differences lie in their farming methods, flavor profiles, and nutritional content.

Farmed salmon can tranmet diseases to wild stocks of salmon. If farmed salmon enters the rivers to spawn and interbreeds with wild samon they can contribute to what can be called 'genetical pollution'. As each stock of salmon in each particular salmon river has been adapted to the very conditions in this river, generation after generation, for thousands of years, such an interference is undesirable.
WILD WILD WILD! Wild salmon is a sustainable resource. Out of every red (or nest) two babies survive. That means for every two parents two baby's survive keeping the run the same. Wild salmon is one of the healthiest things you can eat being completely natural. Farmed salmon is given pesticides. Farmed salmon is the modern "chicken" of the sea with growth hormones, pesticide's, and eating there own feces. TRUST ME IM A COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN!
