0:00
could the solution to some of our
0:01
fishery declines uh like Atlantic Salmon
0:04
Brook Trout Cutthroats Etc be found in
0:07
genetic engineering I.E produce more
0:10
heat tolerant fish Etc H yeah uh so
0:15
short answer is yes uh but there's a lot
0:17
to unpack there and so first of all
0:20
there can be uh ethical issues that
0:23
Society needs to wrestle with this isn't
0:25
about a Fisheries manager to decide
0:27
whether or not we should genetically
0:29
engineer animals we release in the wild
0:30
that's sort of a big picture societal
0:33
discussion we've seen some things with
0:36
genetic genetically modified foods and
0:38
some people will intentionally avoid
0:40
purchasing them others you know are
0:42
indifferent or don't uh don't care or or
0:45
haven't been paying attention to to
0:47
what's going on uh it's absolutely
0:50
possible to engineer fish selectively
0:53
breed fish uh for certain
