Environmental Concerns Over Huon Aquaculture's Antibiotic Use.
A recent EPA report reveals that Huon Aquaculture administered over a tonne of antibiotics during a bacterial outbreak earlier this year. Alarmingly, wild fish near their Tasmanian lease showed antibiotic levels up to 12 times the legal limit for commercially sold salmon. While public health officials state there's no immediate risk to consumers, environmental groups and the public are raising serious concerns about aquaculture practices and marine ecosystem health.

The EPA report says eight samples of wild fish were taken in the Zuidpool North lease, with three samples — all blue mackerel — testing above the reporting threshold. One sample site showed a result 12 times higher than the maximum antibiotic threshold for commercially sold salmon.
