Reef pest becomes Cayman’s culinary delight
(CNS Business): As efforts to control the lionfish population wreaking havoc on reefs in the Caribbean continues, the Cayman Islands has jumped on board with the “If you can’t beat ‘em, eat ’em” campaign. Local restaurant owners said the demand exceeds the supply available on island, forcing them look elsewhere but organizations like the Cayman United Lionfish League (CULL) are asking for the government’s help to ban the importation of lionfish and to focus more on culling and serving the invasive species from our own reefs.
