Oceans, Fisheries & Aquaculture

پرسش‌های متداول

Is farmed fish better for the ocean?

Not necessarily — carnivorous farmed species like salmon are fed wild-caught fish, and open-net pens release parasites, waste and escapees into surrounding waters.

What is bycatch?

Non-target animals — dolphins, turtles, sharks, seabirds — caught and usually discarded dead. It accounts for a large share of total marine catch.
