Impacts on Aquatic Life for Indiscriminate Exploitation of Baby Shrimp (Penaeus monodon) in the Coastal Area, South-Western Region of Bangladesh

Abstract

Baby shrimp ( Penaeus monodon) post-larvae fishing is a major source of income for the most fishermen in the coastal region of the south-western part of Bangladesh during the whole year. These post-larvae collectors lack financial security and are socially regressive. Other aquatic species are destroyed by the indiscriminate exploitation of baby shrimp for aquaculture. According to the present study, about 98-99% of other larvae are destroyed to catch nearly 1-2% of indiscriminate exploitation baby shrimp in our study area where averagely 0.35% Penaeus indicus, 0.06% Penaeus merguiensis, 0.037% Metapenaeus monoceros, 3.58% other shrimp, 6.59% fin-fish larvae, 5.95% crab larvae, and 82.42% small organisms. Actually, the government of Bangladesh already has declared a ban period and outlawed baby shrimp fishing. However, the poor fishermen are fishing continuously in order to maintain their 's livelihood. Furthermore, because of wild baby shrimp are said to have a far higher survival rate than baby shrimp raised in hatcheries, farmers prefer wild baby shrimp. For thousands of Bangladeshi coastal landless and jobless poor people, wild prawn baby shrimp fishing has created employment opportunities. This study describes the impact of wild baby shrimp fishing in coastal area of Bangladesh.
