Undercurrent News: Norwegian firm begins harvesting sea urchin pest in Australia
Infestations of long-spined sea urchins in Australia's east coast are being dealt with by a firm aiming to turn them into a lucrative industry.
Norwegian firm Urchinomics is harvesting the urchins in order to fatten them up for two-three months until their roe — a delicacy, particularly in Asia — is ripe for eating, reports The Australian.
