Shrimping Halted in the Gulf of Mexico

2 years after the 2010 Deepwater Horizon rig blast and subsequent oil spill, fish and shrimp appears with lesions in the Gulf waters. Now Shrimping has been halted for the time being in the Gulf of Mexico.

Shrimping was stopped because of the deformities discovered in fishes because of the disastrous oil spill and chemical dispersants used for cleaning up the oil.

After the Gulf of Mexico disaster, there was news that the shrimps and fish all over the Gulf were nauseatingly deformed by the oil spill.

All area in the Mobile Bay and Mississippi Sound, and certain waters of Little Lagoon, Bon Secour and Wolf Bay were closed for shrimping.
