wild fish
Not from farms
Wild fish are fish that live and reproduce in their natural habitats rather than being raised in captivity.
The term distinguishes ocean-caught or river-caught fish from farmed or aquaculture-raised fish: Wild salmon has a different flavor than farmed.
Wild fish populations face pressure from overfishing and habitat loss, making the designation increasingly relevant for conservation and food labeling.
