Tasmanian Giant Crab held hostage at Sydney Fish Markets

Tasmanian Giant Crab held hostage at Sydney Fish Markets

The Tasmanian giant crab has been commercially fished in Tasmanian waters since 1992 and a minimum size was established in Australia in 1993. Fishing is typically by pots in water deeper than 140 m. The Tasmanian giant crab is very long-lived and slow-growing, making it vulnerable to overfishing.
