HALIFAX — A commercial elver fisher in Nova Scotia says he welcomes news of the significant seizure last week of baby eels at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
But Stanley King of Atlantic Elver Fishery says the seizure by federal officials is long overdue and comes as the current season for catching elvers is winding down.
The seizure of 109 kilograms of eels, also known as elvers, was carried out last Wednesday by the Fisheries Department and the Canada Border Services Agency.
