The harvesting process of paua involves diving into the ocean to collect the shellfish from their rocky coastal habitats. Harvesters use special tools to pry the paua off rocks, careful not to damage the delicate shell. After being collected, the paua are quickly transported to processing facilities where they are carefully shucked and cleaned before being packaged for sale. Because overharvesting can harm the paua population and damage the ecosystem, strict guidelines and regulations are in place to ensure sustainable harvesting practices.
