Number of escaped farmed fish
Large quantities of fish escape from Norwegian fish farms every year. 2006 set new records in escapes both from the production of salmonids and marine species like cod. The amount of escaped fish was reduced somewhat in 2007 to a more normal but still a large amount of escaped individuals.
