    Sadly a lot of the companies harvesting them will just kill and sell them for bait anyways.

    Of those that are released, about a third die. Not to say about the decrease in overall fitness, which can lead to them falling prey more easily.

    It’s obviously a traumatic experience for the animal in the best case scenario and that is going to reflect on their ability to survive in the wild.
