No. 1603, Ernakulam North P. O., Kochi, Kerala, India e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT An experiment was designed and conducted to assess the feasibility for culture of Penaeus monodon in 6 m dia HDPE circular floating cage, installed at 10-12 m depth off Visakhapatnam in the Bay of Bengal. The cage was fixed with three cylindrical nets; inner net of 2 mm mesh (6 m dia×5.5 m height) to rear post-larvae from stock to 80th day; middle net of 10 mm mesh (6 m×5.5 m) to rear juveniles from day 81 onwards and an outer net of 40 mm mesh (8 m dia×4.5 m height) to prevent entry of predators. Post-larvae (PL23) of P. monodon (mean total length 16.1±3.8 mm), were stocked in the cage at a -3 density of 1179 PL m ). Bottom water parameters viz., salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH and ammonia (NH3-N) recorded in the cage site during the culture period were 34-35 ppt, 26-32°C, 3.9-4.6 ml l-1, 8.1-8.3 and 0.05-0.07 mg l-1, respectively. -

SHAKUNT PANDEY RTICLE A EATURE F The increased sightings of black tigers is not a cause for celebration but gives an ominous message that inbreeding depression is putting the existence of the already highly endangered Royal Bengal Tigers at stake. (Picture courtesy: Orissadiary.com) In the early 1970s a black tiger cub was born to a normal coloured tiger couple in the Oklahoma City Zoo. Unfortunately this black cub was killed by its own mother shortly aft er its birth. In June 2010, there were reports of the birth of a black tiger cub at Arignar Anna Zoological Park in Chennai. The male cub born to a white tigress had more prominent dark stripes and was hailed as a black tiger. But the Director of the zoo in an email to the author clarifi ed that the tiger cub, who was later christened “Sembian”, had a hair coat which had more black stripes than normal white tigers. He was not turning into black as The black tiger cub with her white tigress mother “Sneha” at Nandankanan Biological Park, Odisha was wrongly reported.

The defence mechanisms of crustaceans are poorly understood, but knowledge of these is a prerequisite for the development of intervention strategies. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to obtain a better understanding of the cellular defence system of the major cultured shrimp species, the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). -
Reviving the Aquaculture of Black Tiger Shrimp in Southeast Asia: Perspectives and Future Direction Siri Ekmaharaj
Reviving the Aquaculture of Black Tiger Shrimp in Southeast Asia: Perspectives and Future Direction Siri Ekmaharaj The intensive culture of black tiger shrimp (Penaeus currently being supplied by some South American countries. monodon) was first developed in the late 1985s, during In order to tap this new market for marine shrimps, there is which time, Thailand was the first country to export a need to increase the farm production of tiger shrimp which cultured shrimps (both tiger shrimp and other marine is an indigenous marine shrimp species in Southeast Asia, to shrimp species) to the world market from 1991 to 2014. The country’s total production of black tiger shrimp at its peak cater to the demand of the new markets in China and Japan. was about 420,000 metric tons (MT)/yr in 1998 and 1999. Then, the shrimp aquaculture industry encountered many problems that were mainly related to water pollution in the culture areas followed by disease outbreaks caused by the White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) impacting on the sustainability of the tiger shrimp culture. As recovery in terms of production was quite slow, the Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) was introduced to the country in 2002. Since then until early 2011, Thailand’s production of white shrimp had increased to an average of 620,000 MT/yr while the production of tiger shrimp was only about 1-2 % of the country’s total shrimp production. Later, when the shrimp culture industry of the ASEAN Member States suffered another Former SEAFDEC Secretary-General Dr. Siri Ekmaharaj major blow due to the incidence of early mortality at SEAFDEC/AQD on 12 July 2018 syndrome (EMS) in cultured marine shrimps during 2010- 2011, production of the white shrimp dropped rapidly in most countries including Thailand. -

1. What Requirements Must Farmed Black Tiger Shrimp Comply with to Be Allowed on the European Market? 2
Entering the European market for farmed black tiger shrimp Last updated: 31 March 2020 Although black tiger shrimp used to be a mainstream product in the European market, due to the rise of the Pacific white shrimp, it has recently become a niche product. Black tiger shrimp destined for the European market must meet a range of requirements. Regulations demand a certain level of traceability, but European buyers ask for more and have a growing interest in third-party certifications and the story behind products. Knowing your product and the requirements gives you an advantage over your competitors. Contents of this page 1. What requirements must farmed black tiger shrimp comply with to be allowed on the European market? 2. Through what channels does a product end up on the end market? 3. What competition do you face on the European black tiger shrimp market? 4. What are the European market prices for black tiger shrimp? 1.

Murder, Intrigue, and the FLSA: What Tiger King Can Teach You About Wage and Hour Compliance Insights 5.29.20
Murder, Intrigue, And The FLSA: What Tiger King Can Teach You About Wage And Hour Compliance Insights 5.29.20 As the COVID-19 pandemic swept over the world, an unlikely phenomenon swept the United States. While new terms like “social distancing” and “essential employees” suddenly became part of the common lexicon, a surprising phrase also emerged: “Tiger King.” Released on Netflix on March 20, “Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness” is a true-crime documentary detailing the life of zookeeper, Joe Exotic. This seven-episode series took viewers on a wild ride through the surprisingly small world of big cat collectors and conservationists. Each episode presented a more outrageous addition to the story that spawned multiple jaw-dropping moments and some of the greatest memes of 2020. At the heart of Tiger King was the explosive and dangerous rivalry between Joe Exotic and his archnemesis, Carol Baskin. The level of vitriol and disdain shared between Carol and Joe made for great television and a jury trial. Another jaw dropping moment from Tiger King, at least for those of us in the labor and employment law world, was the revelation that the individuals caring for these big cats were seemingly not compensated in line with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) – if they were compensated at all. Each of the compensation schemes featured warrant a closer inspection, as incorrect use of these methods of compensation could subject an employer to liability. The FLSA: Minimum Wage And Overtime Requirements The FLSA requires that non-exempt employees are to be paid a minimum wage rate and “time-and- a-half” overtime pay when people work over forty hours a week.
