I didn't know Alaskan King Crab had invaded the area. That's good eats!

Been about 2 years but I was doing some research on the Pechanga area and discovered the Russians had decided to see if Alaskan king crab, etc. could be transplanted to the Arctic over their way.

Turned out they could. In short order they became the top predator and pushed out over to Norwegian waters.

The Norwegians consider them an invasive species so they allow them to be trapped in unlimited quantities 24/7. The Russians view them as a valuable resource ~ particularly for export.

The result is the Russians feed them and the Norwegians give'em away.

The Pachenga River estuary is pretty close to the Norwegian border. Until about 1820 no one knew there was a border there.
