So I'm reaching the conclusion that the bones in the can are salmon bones, finding nothing to contradict that. I have not been able to discover the SIZE of the salmon being canned, but the must be smaller than the spawning salmon that migrate back up their source waters. I would not think they would harvest immature fish, but maybe.
I guess I had fish farming in mind. How long does it take salmon to reach full size? And how many babies can one mama have? I'm thinking if they have enough breeders around, and then had the babies in captivity so they were easy to fatten up and scoop up, all on the cheap, maybe that's their trick? Option B: they harvest the bigger fish for more pricy fillets, and then cram all the un-filletable littles into cans "because, come on, if they're eating fish from cans, how discerning can they be?" For the record, they said it, not me.
I don't see it. These would have to have been netted separately from the adults and added intentionally to the cans. Why? They don't add much bulk. And it seems there are lots of people who are less than enthusiastic about getting one in mouthful of supper. Dunno.

Baby salmon?
