Salmon were extremely abundant in all of the cold water
rivers of the world For the last few million years as far as
I can determine;  so paleo peoples must have had them
available fresh for a month or more each year and they are
easily dried so their meat was available for longer periods.
There is ample evidence that the American Indian had little
trouble catching Salmon and had little trouble cooking it.
Go to Seattle and you can buy a ticket to an Indian "Salmon
Cookout"  where they cook it on sticks.

The closest to paleo Salmon most of us can buy today is
canned "Red"  or "Pink"  Salmon as most fresh Salmon is
raised in a pen on corn meal while the "Red"  or "Pink
Salmon are canned on big ships in the northern seas because
they are not easy to ship to the fresh market.


  There is a little worm in some Salmon that cycles between
Salmon and Seals that eat Salmon,  however in humans it
causes some pain then dies  as humans are different than
Seals;  so it is not fatal but just a nuisance to humans.

So cooked Salmon is more pleasant to eat.

And canned Pink Salmon is very economical.

So what is the difference between the food value of cooked
Salmon and raw Salmon and dried Salmon.  ( I don't know if
the worm survives the drying process)????
