The correct answer is B. They are being harvested faster than they can replenish themselves. This is because so many people fish for them, but they don't think about the fish needing to reproduce. If the government were to put some sort of limitation to fishing during breeding season, this would help the fish to reproduce more quickly and restore the species.
