Episode notes
In terms of scale, the number of shrimps being farmed each year is estimated to be around half a trillion with a T. If you include wild-caught shrimps, the number could be in the tens of trillions. This would make shrimps the most farmed animal in the world and potentially the most caught in the wild as well. In comparison to land farm animals, the number of shrimps farmed and slaughtered each year is six times greater than the total number of chickens, pigs, cows, and goats combined. The sheer magnitude of these numbers is hard to comprehend, but it's mind-boggling to see millions of animals in a small pond. It's unreal.
