I want to know why I haven't seen any stories of mass overpopulations of sea turtles because of these teds that they claim are needed? it was never shrimpers hurting turtle populations but the wholesale slaughter of them on Mexican beaches as a food source and that has never stopped AFAIK.

just another example of liberal feel good regulations that hurt fishermen

I think you misread the article This is the shrimpers trying to repeal the law. They are trying to show they want to do more and be in compliance with federal regulations which includes placing TEDs on their trawls.
