Ocean Wise has stopped recommending MSC-certified salmon fisheries from Southeast Alaska due to concerns over the impact on endangered Southern Resident killer whales and other species. Meanwhile, the U.S. Gulf of Mexico shrimp fishery has become the first to obtain Responsible Fisheries Management (RFM) certification, covering white, brown, and pink shrimp.
