Most species of crabs are caught in pots or traps that are designed to reduce bycatch and habitat damage.
Red and blue king crabs, harvested for their legs, come primarily from a poorly managed Russian fishery — look for U.S. king crabs instead.
Although blue crabs (hardshell and softshell) can generally withstand heavy fishing, habitat degradation in the Chesapeake Bay and bycatch in shrimp fisheries in the Gulf of Mexico continue to be concerns.
