Brochure gives diners salmon facts

From page 26

The Salmon House also provid-
ed diners with a crash course in
salmonid awareness with a pot-
pourri of interesting wild and
farmed salmon facts included in a
handout brochure:

Wild:
* Of the millions of (salmon) eggs

laid yearly, only 1.5% survive to
maturity;

* Of all wild salmon caught, 55%
is processed into canned salmon,
40% is sold frozen and 5% is sold
fresh. .
Farmed:

* Norway began farm-raising
Atlantic salmon in the late 1960s;
* 99% of all fresh salmon sold in

Europe is farm raised;

* B.C.’s salmon farms are the only
ones to produce three species:
chinook (77%), Atlantic (15%),
and coho (7%);

* The survival rate of farmed
salmon is 70%.

They don’t call it the Salmon
House for nothin’, folks.

tions together have raised

The trust fund is also establishing
a permament collection for the

*We work with them and they
