Fishery officers in Nova Scotia have released seized undersized lobsters back into the ocean after making four arrests. The operation took place in Saulnierville, N.S., where Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) officers intercepted the crustaceans. The arrests were made as part of ongoing efforts to protect lobster stocks and ensure compliance with size regulations. The DFO Maritimes confirmed the seizure and release on social media. The undersized lobsters were returned to their natural habitat to allow them to grow and reproduce. The DFO continues to monitor fishing activities to maintain sustainable fisheries.
