<h1><span class="date">1950s: </span> <span class="title">Alaskas commercial crab Industry grows</span></h1>
<p>King crab becomes popular on menus in restaurants across Alaska and the western U.S. The red crab, found in Bristol Bay, Norton Sound, and near Kodiak, is the most commercially important crab. Like other crabs, it lives in waters near Alaska Native villages, which depend on crab as a traditional food. Alaska Native fishermen enjoy the benefits of commercial crabbing until the crab population is depleted.</p> <!-- Theme -->
