Nets for Lion fish capture
This Sunday, a massive Lion fish capture on the coast of Quintana Roo was organized to celebrate the conservation week in Tulum. Staff from GVI Mexico participated in it and during this Massive capture we were given the special nets that were shown during the workshop two weeks ago.
Lion fish invasion continues to be a big problem as every day the number of lion fish sightings are increasing, Pez maya and Punta Gruesa expeditions are not the exception as volunteers and staff have been reporting an increase amount of them. Every time a lion fish is sighted by us a report is filled and sent to CONANP (Comisión Nacional de Areas Protegidas) which is one of our local partners and the ones in charge of lionfish management in the Region.
With the new nets we will be able to capture lionfish on a better way and get them out from the Mexican Caribbean waters!
