1 SAFESPEAR, LLC PRODUCT LAUNCH BNT Rand Centre April 14, 2010 Gregg T. Waugh, President Lisa A. Waugh, Vice-President SafeSpear, LLC
2 OUTLINE COST OF INVASIVE SPECIES DESCRIBE THE INVASION WHAT S BEING DONE THE PERFECT INVADER (BIOLOGY) COMMERCIAL & RECREATIONAL HARVEST SAFESPEAR S SOLUTION
3 COST Invasive species cost US $137B annually Over past century, >68 marine sp. introduced in FL, Carib. & Gulf of Mex. Flats fishing generates $141M annually in Bahamas
4 COST Irreversible domination of community structure (50-90% of fish biomass) Alteration of food web Corals Commercial fishing (2%- 3% of GDP) Recreational fishing TOURISM
5 INVASION Red Lionfish (Pterois volitan) 97% Devil lionfish (Pterois miles) 1 st. Reported 1980s along SE FL Commercial fisherman 1985 Dania Beach, FL Several indiv. fish observed by divers off Palm Beach & Boca and another by angler from Lake Worth Pier, Palm Beach 1992 Hurricane Andrew 6 escaped from aquarium on Biscayne Bay
6 INVASION 2000 & 2001 NOAA researchers report multiple lionfish off NC, SC, GA, FL & Bermuda st. found Bahamas by rec. divers May 2006 found in Freeport Canals (Mike Stafford)
7 INVASION Recent status USGS web site Source (James Morris)
8 INVASION Future Distribution Limited by Water Temp. Minimum temp. = 10 degrees C or 50 degrees F Source (James Morris)
9 What s Being Done? 2007 REEF worked with local dive operators & College of the Bahamas lionfish surveys August 2007 COB Marine & Environmental Studies Institute in collaboration with Department of Marine Resources established online reporting: asweb2/home.nsf/vcontentw/gov-- Other--Marine+Resources+- +Lionfish+Survey!Opendocument
10 Bahamas Government Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries Department of Marine Resources COB-Marine & Environmental Studies Institute NGOs (BNT, BREEF, The Nature Conservancy) Private Sector
11 Government, NGOs & Private
12 National Lionfish Response Plan COB-Marine & Environmental Studies Institute/Department Marine Resources (2009) High Priority Mgmt. Strategies (1-2 yrs) Amend Regulations Allow spearfishing w/scuba for tournaments & organized dive groups Unlimited bag limit of lionfish Allow spearing of lionfish around islands Encourage Commercial Fishery Expand & Improve Protection of National Parks & Marine Reserves
13 The Perfect Invader - Reproduction Mature in year 1 Males 4 Females 7 Eggs evolve & grow on stalks; each egg has somewhat of an umbilical cord Complex courtship female releases 2 egg masses Eggs encased in gelatinous mucous hollow & traps sperm 26 day larval duration Spawn year round every 4 days 25,000 eggs/batch >2 MILLION eggs per female per year
14 The Perfect Invader Feeding Eat > 40 species Stomach expands 30X in volume Eat fish ½-3/4 size Observed eating 20 small fish in 30 min. Nassau groupers & yellow tail snappers Picture from Morris Exuma work: reduce native fish by 80% LF consuming more biomass in some of higher densities that recruiting to site
15 The Perfect Invader - Predators Natural predators large groupers, coronet fish? Octopus mimics Native predators don t recognize LF as prey Found in Nassau groupers, greater AJ, sharks Exuma Feeding Trials Nassau grouper, red hind, grasby, nurse shark & octopus 5-39 days=no LF eaten NMFS Beaufort, NC Similar results with black sea bass, gag
16 Why? The Perfect Invader - Density Niche empty Lack of predators Lots of food Warm temperature Grow larger (18 + Bahamas versus 15 native range) Source: James Morris
17 VENOMOUS NOT POISONOUS!!!!!!!!!!!! D, V & A Spines Severe pain, swelling, rash 2 Glandular Groves Release venom when tissue is disturbed Venom is in the spines NOT in the flesh/meat Remove spines = Remove venom = Safe to eat!!!!!!! Source: James Morris
