S1E2: Would you feed your dog biscuits that were made with green crabs?
The green crab is a voracious invasive species that is wreaking havoc on many popular types of seafood species and in Maine’s fishing communities.
What if a use could be found for this invasive species that turned them into a desirable product?
Food scientists at UMaine are attempting to do just that and if they are successful it could mean a special treat for a land-based animal- none other than man’s best friend. Beyond that it could make for some tasty options on the menu the next time you visit your favorite seafood restaurant.
