"Disturbing" is not the word for it. "Crimes against another species" comes to mind.

Same with Bluefin Tuna. They will keep "harvesting" until there is nothing left. Spread the word.

I am glad you have brought this to our attention! As Diana above says, disturbing indeed.<br />Christychristybhttp://www.poeticparfait.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5599994070177946721.post-3298412130804449972011-12-02T17:32:56.816-05:002011-12-02T17:32:56.816-05:00Deeply disturbing!

This looks like another example of personal greed gone "a muck." Native people usually understand the fragile balance of nature and how to manage it better than what I see here. Yet over-harvesting our oceans and other wildlife goes on all over the world. Stories like this break my heart.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09818249321432380704noreply@blogger.com
