Campaign for fish to be kept in better conditions

In Walmart stores in the USA, the care of live fish is reported to be extremely poor. This has prompted a raft of petitions calling for fish to be kept in better conditions in the stores.Sharanya Prasad has been campaigning for better conditions for live fish at Walmart since 2014. According to the online news portal huffingtonpost.com, her petition attracted 160 000 signatures in just a few days. "However, no changes have taken place in Walmart stores yet," says Prasad.
Walmart responded to the accusations with the following statement:"We recognise and appreciate our obligation in the care and feeding of our live fish.  We have processes in our stores that allow for the proper care of all betta fish by our associates. Like anything else in our store, if something doesn't meet our customers' expectation, we hope they'll bring it to the attention of store management. When we are made aware of such an issue, we take immediate action."
