FHF’s two objectives for development of a technique to mark and thereafter detect farmed salmon in wild populations are: 1) 100% accurate differentiation of farmed from wild salmon; and 2) 100% accurate traceability of escaped farmed salmon back to the owner and preferably location. A newly developed technique, stable isotope otolith fingerprint tags, has the potential to yield 100 per cent accurate differentiation of farmed from wild salmon and 100 per cent accurate traceability of escaped farmed salmon back to the owner. The technique uses naturally occurring isotopes and has been tested and validated on both marine and freshwater fishes and has no known adverse effects on the fish themselves or the health of humans who may consume them. It has not previously been applied to salmon or for use in mass-marking production fish.
