What does wild caught mean?

Wild-caught fish are caught by fishermen in their natural habitats — rivers, lakes, oceans, etc. The main benefit of wild salmon is that the fish just eat organisms found in their existing environment, which by nature, is far more diverse than what farmed fish get to eat on a regular basis.  Additionally, wild-caught fish have the benefit of not containing antibiotics, as wild fish don’t have the same risk of disease or infection as farmed seafood.
