The pair trawlers drag huge nets between them, which regularly also snares common dolphins who drown, often breaking their fins, beaks or backbones in their struggle to escape. During the tour the Greenpeace onboard team gather evidence of the impacts of pair trawling and take direct action to stop pair trawlers from operating. The Greenpeace crew also collect dead dolphins from the sea for later delivery to the Institute of Zoology for full post mortem.Related Collections:Oceans Style GuideDolphin Bycatch Tour 2005 (All Photographers)
