I remember when the king crab came to Norway well. It was considered an invasive spiecies, a pest, which harmed and drove out our native crab species. The ugly spider like crab was killing our friendly normal nostalgic crab. It was called an invasion from russia. 30 years later the russian invasion was a blessing. Interpret it how you want. Or not. Its just a crab. 😂
It can still threaten other local wildlife potentially. Perhaps deliberate over-fishing in certain areas could help to regulate it if the other species they threaten are considered more valuable to us.
Yes, probably. Oil and especially gas prices became sky high and we supply 40-50% of Europe with gas. The same with electricity - we have 17 cables connected to other countries in Europe so they buy Norwegian hydropower at a good price. But - We are also, with our 5.5 million inhabitants, the one who has given the most to Ukraine. We have and will give them close to $12 billion
@@titlingur2009 It is totally irrelevant. Norway has not asked for any war - that you sell your products and make money is precisely what buying and selling is all about. Norway owes nothing to anyone. We also don't live in luxury for what we earn - we leave it for the next generation.
Norwegian here, I can't believe how lucky we are. Oil? Found it. Minerals? Got it. Fisheries? Doing it. Climate change? Lets do agriculture in the Arctic. Ukraine war? Let's sell oil, gas and fucking king crabs. We're a nation making fun of the rest of the world, by sheer luck.

Its actually hard to do because those ae very cold waters to go check out how is everything down there, you can only get estimaes based around what the fishermen are caughting
It eats EVERYTHING on the bottom and used to be cursed by fishermen, and created a lot of fear propaganda on the news, until they started fishing it and saw the profit. I think a healthy quota system is the key to keep the whole ocean going normal for our children and grandchildren.
It has its natural range in the northern Pacific Ocean, but was released in the Murmansk Fjord on the Kola Peninsula in the 1960s by Russian scientists to build up a new industry in the area. In 1977, the first individuals appeared in Norwegian waters
It is only regulated east of north cape in cooperation with Russia. There are no quotas west of north cape, as the authorities wants to prevent it to spread further south.
I know this is a random question but does anyone in these comments know where to get King Crab in France? This Canadian is going through withdrawl. Absolutely impossible to find in the South West of France where I live.
I think I've seen some canned king crab a couple times. I suspect most people probably aren't too familiar with it and prefer tourteau from Brittany / Normandy and a few other varieties traditionally used in some regional recipes.
It ms amazing that this article never mentions that when the king crab invaded Norway, Russia FORBADE Norway to fish these things even after they made their way down to Bergen.
I wonder if there's a strategy for when sanctions against Russia will be lifted and the prices drop. I don't think the sovereign wealth fund will help this particular village rolling then. Norway's always been forward thinking so I'm guessing it'll prepare for the day but I wonder how just to satisfy my own brain.
What else should we do? We didn't bring the king crab to the Barents Sea, the Russians did, and if we didn't fish them, they'd spread even more. We can't eradicate them because a large portion of the stock is in Russian waters.

That is a fish of the flyndre/flounder family and is called Kveite (in Norwegian), aka Halibut (in English), with a typical adult weight of around 180 kg. As I am aware of, the largest specimen caught in Norwegian waters weighed 314.5 kg, caught by fishing net in 2007. Kveite is considered a traditional delicacy in Norway since the Viking Age, and probably long before that era. Kveite is described in writing in the Egil Skallagrimsson's Saga, as a food and important trade commodity remembered from his early years in Hålogaland, North Norway, among other places. (The Viking chieftain Egil Skallagrimsson lived in the period 910-990, in Norway and Iceland).
saying its the only place western countries get king crab is a lie...... i live in Pacific northwest, most of our king crab comes from alaska.... except summer 2023 lol
And it will within the next 10 years if not sooner. Temperatures of the waters are increasing in that area (well, globally as well), which will kill off / push the crabs out. It's a temporary boon for them, they should make the most of it for what little time they can, cus the good times are going to come to a brutal halt in the near future due to global warming.
Because any money that russia earns is money that goes to russia spilling Ukrainian blood in Ukraine. Stop russian money, and they won't have money to spill Ukrainian blood in Ukraine. Very simple.
It's very simple and not at all funny - russia earns money through international trade and evasion of sanctions, and immediately puts it into weapons that it then uses in Ukraine.

King Crab is a HUGE business. Even in Alaska, where it's caught in North America, for a pound at a restaurant you're looking at $100+.
That's because warming waters killed off billions. The king crab fishery in Alaska is a shadow of its previous self.
King crab is a very expensive seafood delicacy in Asian countries. They sell them well over $30 PER CRAB. Holy tamale!
It's interesting how war could turn a creature like the king crab into big business in Norway. From an invasive species, the king crab has now become a significant source of income.
Thanks for sharing news from my country. I'm half "northerner", so interesting to learn about what's going on up there, since I don't have a TV.
There's practically no background on how it became an invasive species nor how it has affected the local ecosystem. 🤷♂️

Is the crab peeing? 6:31

The king crab is a invasive species and is destroying the native fauna. They have to be regulated
Aren't they a pest species in that area anyway?
