Coastal biomedical labs are bleeding horseshoe crabs with little accountability

>Family businesses used to own many of the smaller facilities in the earlier days of bleeding. Now, the industry is dominated by giant multinational firms, like a facility in Virginia owned by the Japanese conglomerate Fujifilm, and Charles River Laboratories, a publicly traded company based in Massachusetts that took over a local operation in South Carolina.

"Negative sentiments around the depletion of a common resource are generally attributed toward the producer currently depleting the resource, as the resource measurably crashes. However, anti-social over consumption behaviors must begin prior to resource scarcity. Society generally overlooks hoarding behaviors that induce scarcity, despite these actions being wantonly anti-social. This is not a surprise, as information as to the state of any resource prior to its consumption is generally unknown, and we have developed very few social brakes on consumption in abundant periods."[1]

So at what point did it become a problem? When did overconsumption start? Are we going to hold any of the people that started the problem accountable or are they all dead?

I recall seeing at least one article where an alternative, synthetic serum was seemingly rejected from approval by seemingly cronyist interplay between corpo-regulatory regimists. I should look it up again because it's been years, but there really should be bigger attempts at synthetic alternatives smh

Probably won't stop until they can't find any, like the snow crab harvest moratorium. Millions of years: No problem. A few decades with humans: brink of collapse.
