TEDs are used in Australia and are mandatory in legislation in many trawl fisheries. Aussie professional fishers are stewards of the sea and develop best practice techniques to reduce interactions with turtles.
** Sea turtle mortality resulting from the ingestion of plastic bags, bait packets etc, is a serious concern. This interferes with the turtles ability to dive underwater, making it very difficult to avoid fast moving boats. There is need for Increased community awareness of this reality.
What do you mean by shops? As pets or as food? I think turtle breeders are a perfect way of saving these animals and bringing awareness and care for turtles.
Dude normally i'd say don't snitch but all species of sea turtles are endangered. If you even suspect that they are wild caught then it's really your duty to turn them in.
I worked with Loggerhead sea turtles one summer as an intern and faced numerous opposition to helping the turtles, but it was mainly through ignorance and a lack of proper education. Educating people on the plight of threatened and endangered species will greatly help the organisms, and swell the numbers of those actually trying to help.
looks great! saving the turtles! the net is a genius idea. fishermen and other people who are too focused on their own selves to see what our world has become seriously need to be stranded on an island and watch their own population dwindle -.-
I think we should spend less time worrying about turtles and more time worrying about us humans. There's millions of starving children, and these people are trying to save turtles
yes it was just a joke, im just tired of people making those types of comments on videos like these that talk about endangered animals.
but on a serious note these people are just doing their jobs, learning about and protecting marine wildlife. i doubt they would be of any real help trying to figure out how to solve the worlds food shortage.
True, but turtles are only in this position because of us. If we wanted to just take care of ourselves we would clear cut every forest for crop land and kill the Earth in the process.
We need moar turtles.

no breeding disrupts the population genetics and concentrates parasites. It's terrible.
