Police officers with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) confiscated around 30 pounds of live green crab that were being sold at a Seattle seafood market earlier this month. FOX13

WDFW officers went to investigate the seafood market after receiving a tip that they were selling live green crab in early December. It was later determined that the market owner purchased the crab from a retailer in Massachusetts.

Potential impacts include the destruction of eelgrass beds and estuarine marsh habitats, threats to the shellfish industry, the Dungeness crab fishery, salmon recovery, and other ecological impacts to food webs.

WOW the crab cartel! They're here!

But are they tasty?

Wow

Did you know that If you catch one of these invasive green crab in a pot in the sound, it is illegal to retain it and you must release it back into the water alive? Makes sense huh?
