Siberian sturgeon on its way to Spain

Today was loading day at the Rutikvere fish farm. The Siberian sturgeon we sorted and checked by ultrasound last week, 3,500 kg in total, set off for Spain.

From the pool to the truck

The fish are netted from the pool and lifted straight into a water-filled transport tank. The work is done quickly and calmly so the fish travel in the best possible condition.

The journey

The tanks on the live fish truck have a continuous oxygen supply, and the batch travels with a veterinary certificate. Thank you to everyone who helped with the loading!
