  • After a two-year hiatus, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game has reopened the snow crab season in the Bering Sea.
  • Fishermen confront significant uncertainty as the snow crab population has rebounded only slightly from a 90% decline.
  • Biologists attribute the drastic drop in snow crabs to a climate-related heatwave in 2018, raising concerns about future occurrences.
  • The overall Alaska seafood industry faced losses nearing $2 billion between 2022 and 2023, leading to increased prices for consumers.
  • Despite the lifting of the moratorium, fishing quotas are limited, posing challenges for many in the industry.
