I think that the red tide is very interesting. I think this is a form ofg natural selection. So God intended for this to occur because it is what is best for the envirerment. So we should do nothing to stop it, even if it means that some shellfisf have to be poisoned.
I have never heard of red tide shellfish. It sounds like something i want to learn more about. That is a lot of money that the fisherman harvest.
