Animal rearing impacts the natural environment, as does every human activity. Major modifications induced by aquaculture are related to the basic biological processes in living animals. Major causes of impact are associated with feeding and nutritional wastes, the existence of diseases and the interbreeding of wild and selected strains. All over the world, these impacts have been described. In some cases, they have been serious. The major reported impact is modification of the benthos and its consequences on water quality, spreading of disease and faunal modification. Site selection is the first discriminating level when the environment is concerned.
