Commercially harvested in British Columbia since 1976, the geoduck fishery now ranks first in landed value among the invertebrate fisheries in British Columbia.
This species is also one of the longest living animals in the world as it can live more than 100 years. The age of a geoduck is determined by the number of rings on its shell.
