Bienestar y legislación de los cefalópodos en la acuicultura industrial: exploración de la irrelevancia de los proyectos de cría de pulpo

Pulpo, invertebrados, acuicultura, sensibilidad, medioambiente marinoResumen
Según los expertos, los pulpos son seres altamente inteligentes y sensibles, capaces de experimentar una amplia gama de emociones como el placer, el dolor y la angustia. Originalmente consumido en el Mediterráneo y el sudeste asiático, el pulpo es ahora cada vez más buscado en nuevas partes del mundo. Estos animales con extraordinarias habilidades cognitivas son ahora el tema de proyectos de acuicultura a gran escala, como el apoyado por la empresa española Nueva Pescanova. Dadas las numerosas cuestiones éticas, económicas y legales planteadas por estos proyectos, un estudio pragmático de su relevancia parece crucial. En particular, la falta de disposiciones legales que regulen la cría de estos invertebrados plantea una amenaza real al respeto de su bienestar por parte de la industria. De hecho, la ausencia de disposiciones legales o pautas de buenas prácticas que regulen la cría de estos invertebrados es una amenaza real para el respeto de su bienestar. Dicho esto, un análisis de las regulaciones existentes sobre la acuicultura sugiere que, en cualquier caso, las granjas de pulpos no podrán respetar las complejas necesidades fisiológicas de estos animales. Además, el desarrollo de tales granjas constituye un peligro para el medio marino y un serio obstáculo para la implementación de normas de protección ambiental. Finalmente, los modelos comerciales basados en la acuicultura intensiva de pulpos tienden a no ser económicamente viables y inevitablemente no cumplirán con los requisitos legales de bienestar animal y protección ambiental.
