Recently someone (and I can't remember who at this moment) told me 
authoritatively that lambi was in danger of going out of existence in Haiti 
because the fishermen are catching them when they are too young and haven't 
reproduced yet.  I will forward this question to the fish expert in the 
Ministry of Agriculture to find out if this is true and what the government 
is doing about it.  The government has put a lot of energy into restarting 
fish farming and redeveloping the fishing industry at sea.  

Inquiries can be made at the website of the Minsitry of Agriculture at 
agroculture@agrohaiti.net   The website address is http://www.agrohaiti.net
