Norway’s Proposal to Double Krill Harvests Raises Tension
Norway proposed almost doubling the catch limit for krill in the Southern Ocean during the annual conference of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) taking place Oct. 20-31.
The proposal heightened diplomatic tensions at the meeting, which had already been overshadowed by the arrest of a Ukrainian delegate by Russian authorities in Crimea.
Krill (Euphausia superba) is a shrimp-like crustacean, just a few centimeters long that lives in schools.
