  • African govt officials, always selling the black man's interests for some few pennies. Shame on the govt. They are the cause of the sufferings of the Senegalese. And they wanna stop immigration to europe, man, hungry man will swim across, whether they like it or not. Under such circumstances, whom do u think will stay? Only the children and women.

  • no wonder there is hunger if people are having 20 children. Starving is not good but is kind of inevitable. Birth control is the responsible thing.

  • @ jackspinoza: So true!

  • Clearly I was talking about the African continent as a whole regarding facts that can be found in the 2009 UN report on world fisheries and fish consumption. If you have anything to contest then call them.

  • @r0c87:

    There is no such a thing as bush meat consumption in Senegal.

    Apart from which, if you were starving, you too would eat almost anything - even rats!

    Stupid man.

  • The eating of bushmeat (wild animals, like gorillas and rodents) is also now a serious problem in Africa even though it has never traditionally been in an African's diet. Funny enough, when fish consumption is low, due to the inability to catch fish, bushmeat consumption is at its highest rate.

    I know that from your point of view it may look incredible but THEY don't have supermarket or electronic shopping to buy biologic food and YES, they eat turtle when it happen!!!!

  • I just decided to stop eating fish, cos if we carry on, the fish stocks will collapse and fish-dependent people will be impoverished and die. Newfoundland Cod collapse was just the beginning. It is not difficult to understand what supertrawlers wil do.

  • Oh My ! They just killed the poor sea Turtle instead letting go back to the sea! .. Fuckn morons ...

  • 13 000 000 for 4 years ???? What a rip off !!! Hopefully they won't renew the agreement, or the fish will eventually disappear...
