Oncorhynchus tshawytscha

Also known as King Salmon, Chinook

Ivory king salmon is the same species as King salmon, but with a twist! King salmon are orangey to bright red in color from the crustaceans in their diet. Ivory king salmon eat the same prey, but lack the ability to process pigment! Thus, producing white filets. Only five percent of wild king salmon carry this trait and fishermen don’t know if they’ve caught Ivory king salmon until they’ve been filleted!

Sustainability status for this species is published by NOAA Fisheries.
