The Bluefin Bonanza

Sea Shepherd crew briefing Operation Blue Rage 2010

The clear-felling of the Mediterranean Sea is happening right under our noses. Every single day, fishermen plunder this unique region, inhabited by numerous species including whales, dolphins, sharks, shrimp, rays, turtles, seals, swordfish, tuna, mackerel, lobsters, octopuses, whiting, hake, sardines and anchovy. The sea used to be abundant with life, yet in the last 50 years industrial fishing, in particular trawling and purse seine fishing, has decimated the populations of marine wildlife. This booklet is a starting point for people interested in the Mediterranean, what industrial fishing is doing to the region and in particular with regard to the bluefin tuna. 44 pages, colour, self-published.
