Hua Hin Mayor Mr. Nopporn Wutthikul has officially presented a new sign to members of the “Crab Bank Learning Center, Takiab Community”.

 

The sign, which was presented to Mr. Montree Pongpanich, head of Ban Khao Takiab Small Boat Fisheries Group, is in recognition of the conservation efforts undertaken by local fishermen in the Khao Takiab area.

 

For more than 10 years, fishermen from Khao Takiab have been helping to boost the populations of various marine life in the waters around Hua Hin.

 

The conservation efforts, which have been done on a voluntary basis, have resulted in an increase in blue crabs, squid, horseshoe crabs, and other aquatic animals.

That sounds vaguely disgusting.

 

In Whitby (UK) it was illegal at one time for the fishermen to land skate!
