Florida Oysters-Bay Closure

FILE - In this May 25, 2016, file photo, the work day begins early for oyster harvesters in the Florida panhandle's Apalachicola Bay. Because of a dwindling oyster population, a Florida agency is expected to shut down oyster harvesting in Apalachicola Bay through the end of 2025, dealing a blow to an area that historically produced 90% of the state’s oysters and 10% of the nation’s.
