Rachel Bowman is a diver who specializes in the hunting, catching, and killing of lionfish（狮子鱼）, a species 1.________ Indo-Pacific waters. Lionfish have also long been popular in aquariums. Tens of thousands of American homes have them in saltwater tanks. Lionfish spend their days 2.________in the water, which makes them particularly well suited to the job of being looked at.
At some point in the past half century,  somewhere in the warmer latitudes of the Western Hemisphere, lionfish jumped from aquariums to natural salt water. Lionfish have succeeded
3.________in their new environment—there are now many millions of them in the Western Atlantic—and this is bad news: they are destructive to native species, 4.________other sea creatures and upending the equilibrium of reef life.
Although there is an 5.________conservation benefit to eliminating lionfish, Bowman does not think of herself 6.________as an environmentalist. She sees her targets as invaders, and considers it her job to 7.________them.
“What you're hunting isn't prey— it's the 8.________” she told me, adding, “Isn't it nice to be on the side of the good 9.________?”She also appreciates the fact that there are no 10.________about lionfish killing. “No bag limits, sex limits, seasons limits, boat limits, gear limits,”she said. “Lionfish is the only species that is one- hundred-per-cent wide open."
Hunting them is a 11.________to an era when you could go into the water and come out of it with whatever you wanted—to an era, paradoxically, before conservation measures were needed. Their goal is a 12.________, usable ecosystem: killing a lionfish saves a yellow tail snapper that, in turn, can be caught for dinner. Hunting lionfish is 13.________but labor-
intensive. They won't chase a hook, and a dragnet is impractical, because it would snag on the reefs where they live.
Lionfish must be killed one by one, with a pole spear. There are many 14.________on these poles—three-foot, sevenfoot, three-pronged, five-pronged—and they have such names as the Lionfish Buster and the Lionator. In the past two decades, many divers have made hunting lionfish their 15.________, but nobody appears to have done it with the 16.________of Bowman. In the ten years that she has been diving, she has gone out roughly three times a week.
