Pesticide run-off killing lobsters

/in /by

Researchers are examining the potential impact of agricultural pesticide run-off on lobsters in the Northumberland Strait. Lobster populations in the Northumberland Strait have been collapsed for a number of years, and no amount of fisheries measures have improved that. The conclusion is that there are other influencing factors that are not coming from the strait itself but coming from the surrounding land. Leading among those contaminants are pesticides that are highly toxic to invertebrates, especially crustaceans such as lobster.
