Wang Ying / Xinhua News Agency via Getty Images fileA decision by Whole Foods to pause purchases of Maine lobster has sparked outcry from the state's elected officials and the lobster industry.
Both point to a recent U.S. court decision indicating equipment used to harvest lobster off Maine may put North American right whales at risk. The whales have been listed as an endangered species since 1970, and fewer than 350 are believed to remain. "There has never been a right whale death attributed to Maine lobster gear," they said."Maine lobstermen have a 150-year history of sustainability; and Maine’s lobstering community has consistently demonstrated their commitment to protecting right whales."
