Farm raised fish versus wild caught Cul 110 exam #3 Alexis Halstead There have been many different long standing arguments about the differences between farms raised fish and wild caught fish. There are good arguments against which is better than the other. Although these farming practices have their difference, eating fish has great health benefits and that should also be taken into consideration when deciding which product you will be purchasing. Fish are widely advertised for there health benefits, but there are many different controversies surrounding how they caught and able to be produced in mass quantities. Eating about two servings of fish per week provides healthy amounts omega-3 fatty acids that can help to lower cardiovascular disease.
It describes how the Bluefin is viewed in many different lights either as food or an economic goldmine to those that fish them, legally or illegally and how powerless the authorities are to stopping the underground trade. They then present the idea that there is only way to preserving the species; by commercial fish farming in protected waters. Overfishing and Fisheries Management: Stocks of commercially fished species must be managed carefully to ensure that the catch (take) does not undermine the sustainability of the fishery. In Australia, about 50 species make up 85% of the commercial catch. The most important species are either fully exploited and are being managed to achieve a sustainable yield, or have been overexploited and are now being managed to allow recovery.
English Persuasive Essay In light of the recent shark culling issue, it has come to many Australian citizen’s attention that something must be done about this situation. It is a situation of ‘kill or be killed’ and the question must be asked as to which is more important: A human’s life or a shark’s life? Sharks already suffer enough from being slaughtered to be put in Shark Fin Soup or for medical research and should not be culled, as they are such an important part of the natural world we live in. Why else would they have survived for longer than the dinosaurs? It is imperative that we look after these majestic creatures and ensure they remain protected.
This increased openess allows countries to specialise in producing goods which they have a comparitve advantage in (this means they can produce goods at lower unit costs) A multinational Company is a corporation that has its facilities and other assets in at least one country other than its home country. There are many examples of MNC's such as Nike or Primark. MNC's play a massive part in the development of globalisation as they often invest heavily into the country they move into. They will build good quality factories to produce the goods and also introduce effective manufacturing methods. These manufacturing methods can be replicated by other businesses in the countries and improve their ability to manufacture goods.
There would be too much metafishes in the population because the flyhip isn’t there to eat them anymore. Then there wouldn’t be enough resources in the water because the metafishes already used up most of the resources in the water. Mutualism relationship: * Flapenguin and horsefly * The flapenguin helps the horsefly by letting it use it’s body for shelter and the horsefly keeps bugs off of it * This relationship affects the ecosystem by reducing diseases in the flapenguin and giving the horsefly a shelter. The horsefly reduces the diseases in the flapenguin by keeping other bugs off it. The horsefly does that by swinging its tail to prevent the bugs from coming closer.
In other words, rainbow trout and steelhead trout are the same species. The fish is sometimes called a salmon trout. Several other fish in the salmonid family are called trout, some are anadromous like salmon, whereas others are resident in freshwater only. Rainbow trout are predators with a varied diet, and will eat nearly anything they can grab. Their image as a selective eater is only a legend.
These little fellows are found higher in the intertidal area. Watch for them in tide pools, under rocks, and under clumps of seaweed. They're very common here. Lower in the intertidal, you'll see the granular hermit crab (Pagurus granosimanus). It has red or orange antennae, lacks hair, and its claws seem rough or grainy.
The Great White has only one natural predator, the orca. There is very little known about the population status of this shark, however it is uncommon compared to other species. The IUCN has given it a label of being vulnerable, but not yet an endangered species. Fisherman go for sharks to collect their teeth and fins. There is a 250,000 dollar fine for anyone who is caught fishing for a Great White.
The Yup’ik Culture When someone looks at the Yup’ik culture, they will more than likely realize how much more simple and peaceful it is from our own American culture. The way they do things is much more different and very less complicated than the way we Americans do things. If you look at particular things that occur in everyday life, it’s very different, for example in fishing. The Yup’iks only catch enough fish to provide food for their family. If the Yup’iks found someone who needed food, they would be more than happy to give them some of their own.On the other hand, we Americans catch excessive amounts of fish which could cause problems in the future, when there could be no more fish to catch.
The by-catch and pollution must also be monitored. There have been positive results from this new management overall, though many salmon populations as well as other marine populations continue to be in decline. It is important that we as consumers choose fish products from sustainable fisheries and understand what this means for marine environments. If salmon continue to be fished and farmed in ways that are damaging to the environment, collapse of the entire industry may occur. This can cause unforeseen economic and ecologic problems that may be irreversible.
