Exterminating the Shad Warns of Atlantic Decline
Washington officials urge immediate state action to protect shad, warning that overfishing and demand are driving Atlantic shad toward extinction. The United States Fish Commission reports drastic declines in annual hatchery output from 60,493,000 in 1904 to under 37,000,000 last year, with 800,000,000 fry possible but only about 45,000,000 handled this year.
