@_Ivan_Ramirez Sorry to hear! Take care of yourself and get fit and well again quickly!!!

Anti-Depredation pingers proven to ⬇️#dolphin-#fishery conflict in artisanal fisheries in the Aeolian Archipelago (Bruno et al., 2021). #Dolphin depredation events decreased by 100% in gillnets, 86% in ‘lampara’ nets with a strong increase in catch weight and revenue reported.

IWC supports #WorldOceansDay and this year’s theme The Ocean: Life and Livelihoods. We can only tackle bycatch, ship strikes, ocean noise and other threats if stakeholders come together, build understanding, balance needs, and find better ways to coexist. Join in...

[Marguerite Tarzia @orcaella1]

Well done to all! Very important work & looking forward to learning from it. #WorldOceansDay #bycatch #cetaceans

[International Whaling Commission @iwc_int]

Congratulations @fruet_pedro of @botosLP, whose #WhitleyAwards winning conservation programme for Lahille’s bottlenose dolphins in the Patos Lagoon Estuary epitomises this year’s #WorldOceansDay theme of The Ocean: Life and Livelihoods. Read more: https://t.co/hKcCQ5iO42

Great lockdown boost to receive some field photos of our NetLight in action from #turtle #bycatch trials taking place in the Med with @spot_turtles & @ExeterMarine. Some very exciting results coming soon! Want to carry out some trials in your fishery? Just get in touch.

[Fisheries & Aquaculture @FAOfish]

Small-scale fishers & fish workers make up 9⃣0⃣% of the total work force engaged in capture fisheries worldwide 🚣‍♀️

#IYAFA2022 will be an opportunity to recognize their rights & empower them to contribute to a 🌍 free from hunger and poverty.

New @FAOfish Technical Guidelines prevent and reduce bycatch of marine mammals in capture fisheries. Huge step forward for fisheries management & conservation of #cetaceans. Practical #bycatch solutions & scientific evidence. https://t.co/jfPW2PrvM8

Replacing the plastic "tail" component of a #FAD with a #biodegradable material would significantly reduce #plastic in the #oceans. Read: https://t.co/mMDxKZeffq

🌟 New #OA paper 🌟

We compiled 17 years of sightings from 19 sources to assess the distribution and #conservation status of snubfin 🐬 in #westernaustralia - huge collaborative effort between @Science_DBCA @portsmouthuni @univofstandrews and many Aboriginal Ranger Groups

This year the IWC commemorates an evolutionary journey of 75 years. The threats to cetaceans have changed & grown since 1946, but perseverance and cooperation remain vital to progress. #cetaceanscience #cetaceanconservation #cetaceanbycatch #shipstrike #marinedebris #oceannoise

Lots of work being done to try & #StopBycatch globally including by governments, researchers, fishing communities, national & international organisations! Collaborative spirit, inter-disciplinary approach & including fishing communities vital.

[International Whaling Commission @iwc_int]

Today is @vivaverdeazul's #StopBycatchDay #diaPareACapturaAcidental. #Bycatch is a critical #conservation issue: +300k cetaceans killed in fishing gear annually. The IWC's Bycatch Mitigation Initiative works across the world to explore effective solutions to #stopbycatch.

[Umair Shahid @UmairUshahid]

IOTC prioritise #mitigation for bycatch species, the IWC - BMI led workshop held in September identified major shortcomings - hopefully there will be a follow up session close to SC in 2020 @orcaella1 @iwc_int @jjkiszka @WWF @sceva271 @aminattock #bycatch #gillnets

I have finally reopened my etsy shop and have added a few new marine mammals to my stamp collection 🐋🐧 Will be adding tote bags at the end of the week!
