Yeh! I hope they don't all get gill-netted up this year.

"As part of a milestone conservation effort led by Mexico’s Environment Ministry, 40,000 baby totoaba fish were released into the waters of the Gulf of California, a unique ecosystem where this threatened species is endemic.
This marks the tenth generation of totoaba — 270,000 individuals in the past 10 years — that Mexico has reintroduced to prevent the extinction of the species."

Releasing hatchlings for the poachers? I hope the poachers paid for the fish farming!
