It could be any combination of the two. I mean just being real take a step back and think about the end to end process from ocean to aquarium. Statistics alone would trend to a higher mortality rate. I mean a quick consultant with the oracle I saw 1,330,000 results returned with data from activists to conservationists. What numbers do you want to use?
I'm not here to argue with anyone so apologies if that is the point taken nor am I a fan of regulation(s). However, I'm also honest when I can take a step back, look at the collection from ocean to aquarium process, and see a high mortality rate. I'd be a fool to think otherwise. It is just my opinion based on my experience. By no means do I represent all.
