    Default Giant shrimp invade the Gulf of Mexico

    This could really screw up gulf shrimpers. Hope they don't come this way!

    Could this be the result of millions of gallons of the oil dispersant Corexit poured into the gulf last year to hide the BP oil problem?

    Steve, you might have to start making your pots a little bigger.

    Fortunately for me, I won't need bigger pots, boat, or grill - I can't catch shrimp to save my butt!

    Nope. It's an invasive species issue. Released or escaped from aquaculture pens.
