Fish are the most numerous animals farmed for food—yet their welfare is often overlooked.

In this episode we are joined by Wasseem Emam, Founder and Director of Ethical Seafood Research, an applied researchorganisation dedicated to improving the welfare of animals in aquatic food systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.

Together, we explore what animal welfare means beneath the water's surface, why fish deserve greater attention in welfare discussions, and how research can help improve aquaculturepractices around the world. From species-specific needs and welfare assessment to the ethical questions surrounding seafood production, this episode highlights both the challenges and the opportunities for creating more compassionate aquatic food systems.

Can seafood ever truly be ethical? Tune in as we dive into one of the most overlooked areas of animal welfare.
