Very curious how this is going to play out. The right whale situation is very sad but I do think there’s really no data that formed that recommendation. My understanding is fishing gear more along the lines of deep sea snow crab fishing up the coast in Canada are the real issue.

So… instead of using that money to figure out how not to repeatedly kill critically endangered whales they’re suing over a scientifically-informed guide to eating seafood sustainably… got it.

LMFAO - get your fishery in order.

Can never have enough seafood 🦞

Free market does not mean fair market.

Literally suing over an opinion about food lmfao.

Send it over by the ton to Texas! We love our lobster!

Umm the horror of being boiled alive is not something I want to do to any being.

Are you serious, banks are exploding, America is collapsing, the lobster issue is very important, are you joking?

No need to be crabby about it

I stand w MontereyAq.

Now we’re suing because of a difference of opinion? I hope this lawsuit is tossed out.

Maybe if the lobster industry reform their practices they wouldn't have to worry about being listed.

Are they working for the clamp down? Is it a claws worth getting behind?

pxwhittle now my wife is googling right whale migratory patterns

Because the traps they use are killing whales.

I can’t even enjoy a mf lobster now.

How shellfish of them.
