Fishing Documentation - Defending Our Oceans (Pacific: 2006)

A severed sharks head covered in flies. Sharks, turtles, dolphins and albatrosses can often end up as unfortunate by-catch of long-line fishing. Greenpeace are on the Pacific Leg of the 'Defending Our Oceans' global expedition. They are calling for an immediate end to pirate fishing, a 50% reduction in the amount of Pacific tuna caught, and a global network of Marine Reserves. Yellow Fin and Big Eye tuna stocks in the Central and Western Pacific are destined to be critically over-fished within three years if the relentless fishing of the two Tuna species continues at current rates.
