No. MegaRed’s krill supplier, Aker BioMarine, uses a patented technology called Eco Harvesting which uses a specially designed trawl system that singles out seals, whales, penguins, other fish, etc., releasing them unharmed. This harvesting technique brings only krill on board the fishing vessel, where the krill is immediately processed – helping to preserve the key nutrients in MegaRed® Omega-3 Krill Oil.
