Balance is essential in giving marine life a chance to recover from overfishing. At the #Alligator Head Foundation managed East Portland Fish Sanctuary creating a viable sustainable future for the region is alot about maintaining balance . Invasive species have to be culled Lionfish (Genus Pterosis) is a beautiful fish originally from the Indo Pacific Ocean and the Red Sea . Outside of its native habitat this fish is a fast growing voracious predator and it is said 1 lion fish can eat more than 30,000 juvenile fish per year. The lionfish has no natural predators in Jamaican waters and so protecting the critical and sensitive coastal resource of East Portland includes seeking them out and removing them as they are able to outgrow native species with whom they compete for food and space . @fstopmovies Reposted from @alligatorheadfoundation #lionfishculling #eatlionfish #eastportlandfishsanctuary https://www.instagram.com/p/CBrcuaPhr0j/?igshid=m69nnjji1jot
