Lionfish Invasion, Part 3

The final part of “The Lionfish Invasion” demonstrates that lionfish can be safely caught, cleaned, cooked, eaten and sold.  In fact, eating lionfish may be one of the only ways to stem their spread! We hope this video will help make Bahamians, and others throughout the Carribbean, aware of the threats of lionfish – and show them not to fear lionfish, but to eat ’em.

What is a Bahamian solution to a dangerous invasive species? Eat ’em.

Lionfish are invading Bahamian reefs at a dangerous rate, threatening native fish stocks and the delicate balance of the marine ecosystem. This documentary looks at one of the Bahamian responses to the invasion.

Part 2 of “The Lionfish Invasion” documents some of the very interesting research and scientific projects being done in the islands. It turns out that there is not very much information about lionfish or the consequences of marine invasive species, so The Bahamas has become a living scientific laboratory.
