Fishing area in the Antarctic becomes ocean sanctuary

The move is supported by the Association for Responsible Krill fishing (ARK) and an NGO coalition of Greenpeace, Pew, WWF and Oceanites.  This large closure supported by the largest krill fishing companies will see nearly all krill companies operating in the Antarctic expanding the voluntary restricted zones that went into effect in 2018. This step would secure the year-round protection of the largest Adélie penguin colony in the region and send a strong statement of intent in support of a marine protected area in the Antarctic Peninsula from industry to the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) and the entire Antarctic community. Krill is a small crustacean and a key species in the Antarctic food web for penguins, seals, whales and other marine life.
