Striped like its jungle namesake, the black tiger shrimp, the largest of 300 commercial species worldwide, is distributed over a huge range, from east and southeast Africa, through the Red Sea and Arabian Gulf, around the Indian subcontinent and throughout the Malay Archipelago to Northern Australia and the Philippines. Most tiger shrimp is farmed, though a significant amount is harvested from the wild by trawlers (this ratio of fin-P to wild-run is contrary to the world's overall shrimp supply, of which 30 percent comes from the wild).
