Abstract The Nile Perch is a fish that was introduced to Lake Victoria in Africa in 1954 and it cause the extinction of many fish species.. This paper will discuss the historical background of the Nile Perch, its Taxonomy, and why it was introduced into Lake Victoria as well as the effect it had on the economy and the environment.

Overfishing occurs when fishermen are catching fish so quickly and at such high rates that the fish are unable to reproduce fast enough to replenish the population.

This problem has progressively gotten worse as the human population that relies on fish as a food resource has increased and the equipment and techniques used by the fishermen have allowed for more fish than ever to be caught. Even though overfishing

A team of researchers have revealed that after some studying, it's been found that rising temperatures in the waters off northeastern Maine is killing a large number of codfish. New England's cod stocks are at 3%-4% of what is considered a sustainable level; they're at the very brink of collapsing. The combination of overfishing and the increasingly warming waters unseen in any other body of water on the planet has caused a steep decline of the codfish reserve of the region. A full report of the
