In general it's a good thing. What Wal-Mart does have is an ultra streamlined supply-chain and a tremendous amount of leverage.

The more the consumer behavior can drive better species management, the better off we'll be.

But in the end, you have to question how an expanding potental for demand (via more stores) is really sustainable, given that the typical Wal-Mart shopper is very price adverse, where as the typical Whole Foods shopper doesn't really care...they just want good fish.
