Raising Napoleon?
The high value Napoleon fish (or Humphead wrasse) is an iconic reef fish that grows to the size of a large man. Found in shallow tropical waters of both Indian and Pacific oceans, stocks of Napoleon fish have declined in both size and number in the last 20 years, prompting an international treaty to support its protection. The listing level adopted by the international community still allows exports, but only under strict management conditions that ensure that international commercial marketing is not detrimental to the sustainability of remaining stocks.
