Is it correct that deformed Kingfish (with bulbous heads) been released into the open sea?
How did these kingfish get deformed?
What fish food was given to the Kingfish to deform them?
When were the kingfish released into the open sea?
Have any fish species been released into the open sea in the last ten years?
If so where were they released from?
Were hormones of some sort given to the fish or placed into the fish food?
What caused the kingfish heads to become deformed?
What species of fish is the Bream Bay Aquaculture Park New Zealand breeding, and experimenting with?
Yours faithfully,
