[lofo List] Emptied Mediterranean - Sharks Nearly Gone

[Daryl Hepting <hepting@cs.uregina.ca>]

Hi;

Continuing the theme from the last post, sharks are almost gone -- but
that's not all:

> The sharks, tunas, sturgeons, sea turtles, and so many other marine  
> denizens of old are a pale shadow of what prevailed in the pre- 
> humanized seas. In a world heading toward 9 billion people, it  
> remains unclear how current populations can be sustained, let alone  
> restored.
