Regulators on the East Coast are contending with a drop in the population of herring, a key forage fish species that has been used as lobster bait for generations. Cuts in catch quota this year will mean the total haul for 2019 will be less than a fifth of the 2014 harvest, which was more than 200 million pounds .
The lobster industry has enjoyed large hauls in recent years, but it's dependent on bait to load traps. A spike in the price of bait could ultimately be felt by consumers in restaurants and fish markets. The drop in the herring population has also sometimes put the lobster and herring fisheries at odds with environmentalists who believe the herring fishery should be restricted because of its role in the ecosystem.
Seems dolphin is plentiful
Alaska is having the same problem. And it’s destined to get worse.
Please look into the Asian trash issue. It’s not just their problem it’s a world issue but needs so much more attention!
Is anyone paying attention to the large sections of the ocean deprived of sunlight due to plastic garbage islands in the ocean?
Oceans are already over fished. The Asians would kill off ever living creature in the oceans if they could so regulate them forsure.
Oh no. What will the average person do if they have to pay more for their lobster
They should only be able to fish every other year. Period.
Baby Seal is a good alternative.
How? They lost their China markets.

Pitcher Miranda Elish taken to hospital after throw hits her in face in Texas-Alabama gameTexas softball pitcher Miranda Elish was taken to the hospital after catcher Mary Iakopo's forceout attempt hit her in face, but she is doing well. Interesting that after hitting her pitcher in the face, the catcher just casually strolled out to circle... I’ll be damned if that throw to the face didn’t appear purposeful and evidenced by the casual stroll by the catcher after the hit.

Why are house prices higher in LGBT neighborhoods? Buyers in gay areas face paying up to four times the average pricePrice of properties in gay areas of Cleveland and Philadelphia are over 240 percent higher than the typical house in the metropolitan areas. Interesting title for an artcile that simply states they sometimes are and sometimes not, but never gets into the far more interesting why which might explain both. This is the Human Decay. Interesting, I am pretty sure it's illegal to even classify neighborhoods as 'LGBT neighborhoods '.
