Yesterday we learnt about the NZ fishing quota system. A fishing quota can mean if you go to a place with a lot of fish you are only allowed to catch a certain amount of fish every time it is basically a shared fish stock and over fishing. There are more than 76% of native fish at the risk of extinction. People who fish from the sea are classified as recreational fisherman(you and me) and commercial fisherman(licensed to haul large amounts of fish.)
If we didn’t have this system then there would be no more fish left as people would take as much fish as they wanted.e.g. blue cod limit is 15 per day per person.
well that’s sad that more than 76% of native fish are going extinct but it’s great that you have a lot of facts
