Did anyone read this article...............? This truly would be catastrophic for the the entire Sea of Cortez. I'd try and post a thread to it, but it takes me forever to do things like that and I'm really too tired right now but pleeeaaasssseeee look it up.

I found the article here: http://azstarnet.com/news/science/environment/article_7678132a-8f02-5804-b0cf-c416c3a0d2f0.html
Sounds like it would be devastating to the RP shrimp fleet.

Thanks Gail, I appreciate it.

devastating indeed. It will make it so people who love shrimp will come down even more I think

This could even slow down the border more. Just think if they decide to check all coolers and friges in all vehicled including RVs.

I seriously doubt they are going to harass private individuals bringing back a few pounds of shrimp. I could be wrong, but this measure is intended to stop any commercial trade in Mexican shrimp, which is where the real dollars and cents are.

There will be a big stink at the border at the border if they do start confiscating shrimp. Literally. As the temps start hitting the 100 degree mark, exactly where will they put the confiscated shrimp? In the trash? Ewwwww! Such a wonderful aroma!
