據(jù)外媒報道，在過去七個月的每個周日，大約有6萬只生猛北美龍蝦被裝進冷藏箱，通過大韓航空公司貨機飛行18個小時運往亞洲。
據(jù)報道，這些龍蝦從加拿大的哈利法克斯起飛，途經(jīng)韓國飛抵上海。隨著中國的需求飆升，今年以來龍蝦的跨洋之旅已經(jīng)成為每周常規(guī)。隨著加拿大和美國的出口暴增，美國龍蝦價格達到有史以來最高。
美國農業(yè)部數(shù)據(jù)顯示，美國對中國的龍蝦出口去年達到8560噸，比2009年增加了22倍。
部分原文報道如下：
Every Sunday for the past seven months, about 60,000 live North American lobsters packed in wet newspapers and Styrofoam coolers make the 18-hour flight to Asia in a Korean Air Lines Co. cargo plane.
The 7,500-mile （12,000-kilometer） trip from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to Shanghai via South Korea has become a weekly routine this year with a surge in demand from China, where lobsters caught in North Atlantic waters are at least one-third the cost of competing supplies. As a result, exports have skyrocketed from Canada and the U.S., the world's top producers, and American prices are the highest ever.
