Default Re: Dogfish Eating Cod

I don't understand why this is news. Take humans out of it and there is a balanced relationship between dogfish and cod (or whatever else they prey on). Add humans and now you have us taking out a large number of the dogfishes' prey, but not taking out any dogfish. Of course dogfish numbers are going to rise while cod numbers are going to decline. So only two things can be done. Stop catching so many cod or start catching more dogfish.
