Dungeness Crabs In Trouble 01/17/17B 17:58 S.S.

A  study,   published  recently,   indicates  that  Dungeness  Crabs  are  likely  to  face  a  serious  threat  when  oceans  become  more  acidic  as  the  carbon-dioxide  levels  increase.      That’s  because  the  ocean  acidification  will  cause   a   decline   in   food  sources  for  the  Dungeness  Crab.    That  doesn’t  bode  well  for  the  West  Coast’s  Dungeness  Crab  Fisheries…which  are currently  valued  at  $220  million.
