Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants: Listings for Two Distinct Population Segments of Atlantic Sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus oxyrinchus) in the Southeast

View Comment

The North Carolina Watermen United is opposed to the listing of Atlantic Sturgeon on the Endangered Species Act. There has been no catch or retention of Atlantic Sturgeon for years, and we are now seeing many more of them in the sounds and oceans than we have seen for years. An ESA listing will abolish all efforts presently being undertaken to study the Atlantic Sturgeon to create accurate statistical data for its population and habits.
