About Phil Karp
I’ve been a champion of market-based approaches to management of invasive lionfish, particularly for development of markets for lionfish jewelry. I have helped artists in Belize and elsewhere to get started with lionfish jewelry and have promoted the market through social media, workshops, and conference presentations.
What do you like about lionfish hunting?
Doing my part to protect marine ecosystems from the harm caused by invasive lionfish.
What do you like about the lionfish community?
I like the fact that the community brings together people from all walks of life who have a shared interest in protecting the marine environment.
