Question: Is fishing bad for crabs? Is fishing bad for natural waters? For nature? Or do we have a #greenwashing argument like for livestock? We do argue, with a serious face, that more livestock is better for nature than more wildlife? 🤪

Not just snow crab, authorities banned king crab fishing last year and this year also. Believe to be migrating north out of the Bering Sea to cooler waters. Yeah, I am a Deadliest Catch long term viewer 😉
