In meinem Vortrag vom 28. November 2025 anlässlich der Internationalen Arbeitstagung «Angewandte Ethologie bei Nutztieren» in Freiburg zeigte ich, dass Fischwohl in der Aquakultur bestenfalls von drei Fischarten erlebt werden kann, während eine erhebliche Reduktion des Tierleids in der Fischerei wohl nur mit einigen handwerklichen Fangmethoden zu erreichen ist.

Research has shown that it is impossible for almost all animal species to experience welfare in aquaculture [1]. Should we therefore focus on improving fish welfare in fisheries? It depends.
The fishing gear and methods vary greatly, depending first of all on the intended catch and, secondly, on the target species.

Resources are, as always, limited. Should we then invest in improving some details in the lives of over 500 farmed aquatic animal species, most of which are known not being able to experience welfare in captivity anyway? Or should we rather focus on the few species that possibly may thrive under improved farming conditions?
