Land transportation of fish

Impact on welfare of road transportation of African catfish and European eel
Radboud University Nijmegen-Wageningen IMARES UR (The Netherlands)
(2011-2012)

Cooperative project


DSCN3902

Studying plasma physiology, metabolism and mortality rate, a clear impact of transportation was found prior to stunning and slaughter of these major species in Dutch aquaculture (2 publications).
