The blue crab is important because it’s important to the food chain and is one of the top fishery. The sturgeon is important because fishers can sell their eggs and meat for a lot of money and is important for trading. The muskrats is a part of the food chain it’s name means musky smell and drops crumbs for fish. My research will show that blue crabs, muskrats, and sturgeon fish are important to the bay.
