Overfishing in the US
According to the "2006 Report of
Status of US Fisheries", overfishing further depleted US fish
populations in 2006.
Forty-seven fish stocks were found to have depleted populations in
2006, compared with 43 the previous year, and 48 were being
overfished last year compared with 45 in 2005. "Congress recently
passed a law to end overfishing, but we need strong rules to
implement it," said Matt Rand of the National Environmental Trust
conservation group.

extinction.
