Hunting methods for lionfish off Bonaire

 

Lionfish are still a major Caribbean reef problem (along with stony coral disease, more on that later), and this New York Times article discusses what can be done to attempt to control them -- which is, primarily, kill and eat them.

Behold the Lionfish, as Transfixing as It Is Destructive

There are some concerns when doing this;  one of the main ones is the lionfish spines, which are poisonous.  So the hunters have developed a lionfish "keeper" -- a tube with a rubber seal at one end -- they can stuff a speared lionfish into, and then go get more.

And, as noted, they are edible.  Eat all you can.
