government start a covert marketing campaign designed to convince the
public that the invasive specie is in fact a delicacy. They can even
rename the specie to make it sound appetizing (think Toothfish to

of the delectable nature of the new exotic seafood, fail to regulate
the fishery. As demand increases, prices will rise and the tragedy of
the commons will eradicate the invaders.

And I want credit, dammit.
