INTRODUCTION
Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish (i.e. fishing)
from a body of water at a rate greater than that the species can
replenish its population naturally (i.e. the overexploitation of
the fishery's existing fish stock), resulting in the species
becoming increasingly under populated in that area..
Sustained overfishing can lead to critical depensation, where
the fish population is no longer able to sustain itself.
 Some forms of overfishing, such as the overfishing of sharks,
has led to the upset of entire marine ecosystems.
 Types of overfishing include: growth overfishing,
recruitment overfishing, ecosystem overfishing.
