The document discusses the 2009 documentary "The Cove" which showed the annual slaughter of dolphins in Taiji, Japan where around 2,500 dolphins are killed, most for their meat and around 1% captured for aquariums. It questions the claims made in "The Cove" that U.S. aquariums obtain dolphins from these drive fisheries, as the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 prohibits taking marine mammals in U.S. waters and importing them, with exceptions such as the killer whale Winter. The document also notes SeaWorld's financial difficulties owing to $1 billion in debt.

Dolphin Slaughter = Dolphin Kill? An Investigation of "The Cove" and its Fina...
The 2009 documentary "The Cove" exposed the annual slaughter of dolphins in Taiji, Japan where around 2,500 dolphins are killed for meat and a small number are taken for aquariums. While the film focused on the killings in Taiji, it brought wider attention to the debate around keeping dolphins and whales in captivity. The documentary maker Ric O'Barry claims in the film that the killings in Taiji are connected to supplying dolphins to aquariums in the US, though only around 1% of the Taiji dolphins end up in aquariums. Some have questioned O'Barry's past claims about training dolphins for the TV show "Flipper".
seaworld paper
This document summarizes a paper that argues for liberating orcas from captivity at parks like SeaWorld. It discusses how the documentary Blackfish sparked debate about the treatment of orcas and safety of trainers. While SeaWorld claims orcas live as long in captivity as in the wild, evidence from organizations like NOAA and National Geographic show captive orcas have significantly shorter lifespans. The evidence suggests SeaWorld may mislead the public and employees about orca captivity.
Chasing coral
Corals are important for sustaining fishing industries and food sources for many countries. They provide refuge for fish and protect shores from erosion and waves. The documentary introduces Richard Vevers, an ocean enthusiast who created a company to survey oceans and create virtual dives, and notes that corals are animals in need of protection as they are dying.
Elephant seals
There are two species of elephant seals: northern and southern. Northern elephant seals are found in California and Baja California, preferring offshore islands to the mainland. Southern elephant seals inhabit Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands, named for their massive size and the trunk-like noses of males. Elephant seals were heavily hunted for their oil in the 19th-20th centuries. Protections were established in the early 20th century after their near extinction.
"Overfishing: Killer of the Oceans"
1) Overfishing poses a serious threat to the global economy as many nations rely heavily on commercial fishing for food and income. Without limits on catch amounts, fish populations are declining rapidly which will be disastrous financially.
2) It also endangers ocean ecosystems as removing too many fish upsets the natural balance, causing other species' populations to crash from lack of food.
3) Additionally, the vast numbers of fish killed by overfishing raises ethical concerns about the inhumane treatment of ocean life.
Overfishing
The document discusses several issues with overfishing, including depleting fish populations, discarding unwanted catch, and bottom trawling damaging seafloor habitats. It provides examples of overfishing causing the cod population collapse in Canada in 1992, which resulted in economic crisis and job losses. Additionally, it discusses threats from shark finning and issues with aquaculture. Solutions proposed include creating no-take zones to help species regenerate and moving to more sustainable aquaculture practices.
Fennelly blue whale
Whales were once hunted in small boats, some whales travel over 12,000 miles per year and have no teeth, and all whales need midwives. Blue whales are threatened by habitat loss, toxins, ship propellers, and fishing gear. The document discusses various facts about whales, such as their hunting history, migration patterns, teeth, birthing process, and threats like pollution and human activity. It also notes that blue whales are mammals that feed on krill and phytoplankton.
overfishing 10-8 2011
The document discusses the issue of overfishing and its negative impacts. It defines overfishing as catching fish faster than populations can replenish. While the world's oceans could theoretically support four planets' worth of fish, many species have become reduced or extinct due to overfishing. The document also examines fishing down the food chain, bycatch, bottom trawling, and how both overfishing and government subsidies of the fishing industry can harm marine ecosystems.

The Whooping Crane is North America's tallest bird, standing up to 5 feet tall with a 7.5 foot wingspan. In the 1800s, their population was around 10,000 but dropped to a low of only 22 birds in 1942 due to hunting, loss of habitat, and collisions with power lines during migration. The Whooping Crane was endangered but is now considered threatened, thanks to conservation efforts like those of the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation who helped breed, teach migration, and support individual birds at a cost of around $100,000 each.

The document discusses the problem of overfishing and its negative impacts. It notes that fishing rates currently exceed fish reproduction rates, and that overfishing has led to a decline in fish populations and sizes. Certain destructive fishing methods like bottom trawling and gillnetting contribute significantly to bycatch and damage fish habitats. Examples are provided of overfished areas like the cod fisheries in Newfoundland and bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean. Proposed solutions mentioned include establishing no-take marine zones and restricting fishing during fish reproduction seasons.

The document discusses preventing or reducing whaling in Denmark through establishing regulations and alternative solutions. It recognizes declining whale populations due to whaling and expresses concern over extinction. It urges developing alternate food sources through agriculture and regulating the number of whales hunted per ship. It also hopes to end the practice of grindadrap and increase awareness of extinction threats, while growing Denmark's service sector and exports to support the economy instead of whaling.
Dolphin slaughter in taiji
The small town of Taiji, Japan has a 400 year history of dolphin hunting where thousands of dolphins are caught each year. Some are sold to aquariums for $150,000 each while the rest are slaughtered inhumanly and their meat, which contains toxic levels of mercury, is sold in markets. Activists have protested the annual dolphin drive hunts in Taiji through demonstrations and the documentary film "The Cove," helping to significantly reduce the number of dolphins killed from over 20,000 to around 800 recently.
Infographic: Sustainable Fishing
Our oceans and fisheries face numerous threats to their sustainability. Over half of the world relies on seafood as a key protein source, yet overfishing puts one third of fisheries at risk globally. The United States imports 80% of its seafood needs annually, and that demand is projected to increase by 2 million tons by 2025. Events like Fishackathon bring programmers together to develop tools addressing challenges such as bycatch, marine debris, and lack of ocean protection to help ensure sustainable seafood for future generations.

Day-tripping across the Gulf - 25,000 farmed Sea Trout on the move and copepo...International Aquafeed
On Monday 24th February 2015, Tom Blacker of IAF visited two special scientific research sites for aquaculture. He followed the journey of 25,000 trout from the University of Southern Mississippi’s (USM) Gulf Coast Research Laboratory – The Thad Cochran Marine Aquaculture Centre’s RAS system near Gulfport and Biloxi - to the Lyman Fish Hatchery. He reports below on copepods, trout and more from Mississippi, USAOverfishing-molly.w
This document discusses the issue of overfishing and its consequences. It explains that overfishing occurs when fish populations cannot replenish themselves quickly enough due to too many fish being caught. Major causes are industrial fishing trawlers that indiscriminately catch huge amounts of fish and sea life. This has depleted fish stocks by 70% and threatens the extinction of many species like bluefin tuna, sharks, and whales by 2050 if no action is taken. The document urges people to choose sustainable seafood options and petition against destructive fishing practices to help protect ocean ecosystems.
Mila, alex k, teodor 103 overfishing ppt
Overfishing occurs when more fish are caught than can naturally replenish, threatening the balance of aquatic ecosystems. Methods like bottom trawling are especially destructive as they involve dragging heavy nets along the seafloor and result in substantial unintended bycatch. The effects of overfishing include decreased biodiversity, disruption of food webs and ecosystem balance, destruction of habitats like reefs, and depletion of a major food source that can ruin fishing industries. No-take zones that prohibit fishing have been established in some areas to allow fish populations to recover and ensure long-term prosperity of fishing. Additional measures proposed to combat overfishing include catch limits, improved enforcement, alternative fisheries, and abolishing destructive practices.
Hawaiian monk seal
The Hawaiian monk seal is an endangered species with only 1300-1400 remaining. They live in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands and feed on larval fish, flatfish, eels, lobster, crab, and octopus. Their populations were historically hunted by humans for their pelts in the 18th-19th centuries. Today, their main threats are from sharks, aggressive male seals during breeding season, and debris in the ocean. Laws now protect them and prohibit approaching seals within 100 feet.

Inland recreational fishing - at a glance
The document summarizes recreational angling participation and economic impact in various countries and regions around the world. Over 174 million people in 43 countries participate in recreational freshwater fishing, with the highest participation rates in Northern Europe at 18.1% and the Russian Federation at 17.5%. The economic value of recreational fishing globally is estimated to exceed $44 billion USD per year through expenditures on equipment, licenses, transportation, lodging, bait, guides, and other related industries. Annual global freshwater recreational fisheries production may be as high as 10.9 million tonnes.
Overfishing
Fish are a renewable resource if populations are managed sustainably, but overfishing has become a problem recently due to advances in fishing technology allowing much higher catches. Issues arise from large nets catching unintended species and damaging ocean habitats, while methods like dynamite fishing destroy reefs. Conservation efforts are needed like limiting catches, protecting spawning populations, and creating marine reserves to allow fish stocks to recover.
Overfishing power point
Overfishing is causing major damage to ocean ecosystems. Trawling fishing methods kill many unintended fish and discard them, while also damaging ocean floors. Popular fish like the Chilean Sea bass are being overfished to the point of endangerment. If overfishing continues at the current rate, experts predict we will deplete all fish stocks by 2048. This is unbalancing ocean environments by reducing predator populations and increasing jellyfish and rays, which leads to more algae blooms and the growth of "dead zones" - areas devoid of life. To ensure a sustainable food source for future generations, we need stronger laws against illegal fishing and overfishing to help reverse some of the damage done to oceans.
Overfishing
Overfishing and pollution are severely impacting fish populations, with over half of fish stocks fully exploited and some depleted or collapsed. If overfishing continues, there may be no fish left in the oceans by 2048. Specific species like bluefin tuna have been overfished, with only 6-12% of their original populations remaining. Bycatch, or unwanted marine life caught in nets, accounts for 2-10 pounds of discard for every 1 pound of targeted shrimp and wastes about a quarter of global catches. Different fishing methods have varying environmental impacts, and aquaculture practices also affect local ecosystems.
Shark finning
The document discusses shark finning, which involves removing a shark's fins and discarding the rest of its body at sea. It notes that tens of millions of sharks are killed annually for their fins to supply the lucrative shark fin trade, primarily to meet demand for shark fin soup. This unsustainable practice has led to sharp declines in many shark populations worldwide and threatens marine ecosystem stability. While some regulations have been implemented, more protections are still needed to curb overfishing and finning and allow shark populations to recover.

Whaling began in the 17th century for meat and oil, expanded globally through the 18th-19th centuries, and is now practiced through scientific, commercial, and aboriginal subsistence whaling despite conservation concerns. Overhunting has severely threatened whale populations like the blue and gray whales, though international agreements in the 1930s-1940s and conservation groups aim to curb threats and allow whale numbers to increase again.
Overfishing by yuliya_miryana_bedros
Overfishing has led to declines in fish populations and damaged ocean ecosystems. Early overfishing in the 1800s depleted whale populations for oil. After WWII, efforts to increase protein availability quadrupled fishing capacity. Today the annual global fish catch exceeds 120 million tons, though overfishing is reducing populations of many species. Destructive fishing methods like bottom trawling damage coral reefs and seafloor habitats. Bycatch and discarded catch also contribute to declining fish and other marine species. No-take zones that prohibit all fishing have helped restore some ecosystems and fish populations.

The North Atlantic right whale is endangered due to threats from commercial whaling, ship collisions, fishing gear entanglements, habitat loss, pollution, and disease. A whale sanctuary was created with no ship traffic to provide the whales with a safe place to live. North Atlantic right whales have low reproduction rates, bearing only one calf at a time, and can live 70-100 years, contributing to their endangered status in the United States where they face these multiple threats.

However, it positions the text differently to further emphasize her. The photo shoot also follows researched conventions like focusing on the top half of the model's body, but uses a more glamorous concept instead of directly representing the hard-hitting drama film. This magazine cover develops on researched conventions to make it unique while still maintaining links between it and the other ancillary products made to advertise the film.
Mental Health
Salamati is the name of a health magazine for Afghan health workers. The aim of the magazine is to improve the quality of medical services provided by afghan health workers and to promote key health messages and proper practices.
Aide Medicale Internationale (AMI) launched Salamati magazine in 1994 to provide Afghan health workers with an appropriate tool to improve their knowledge and skills. And because health workers receive little written information and training material in their own language (Dari and Pashto), AMI felt there was a gap to fill with the regular publication of training magazine providing updated information on the major public health issues.
Salamati issue 36 is on mental health. It was published in 2007. The Chief Editor of the magazine was Dr Najibullah Hamid.

The digipak meets many conventions of real music products through consistent fonts, colors, and emphasis on the artist's name and album title. It challenges conventions by cutting off parts of images and including the artist's social media instead of producer details. While mostly conventional, elements like a handwritten font and messages from the artist aim to feel authentic yet distinctive. Overall, the design draws from typical digipak styles but incorporates some original elements.

Taiji fact sheet
Fishermen in towns like Taiji, Japan drive dolphins and small whales toward shore to slaughter them. They kill tens to hundreds at a time for their meat and because they view the animals as competition for fish. In the past, the marine park industry financially supported these drives by purchasing live animals, but now organizations are urging members not to acquire animals from drives due to ethical concerns. While Japan claims dolphin meat is eaten, consumption is risky due to high toxin levels in their bodies.

Marine mammals have always fascinated me
This document discusses the history of whaling and its impact on whale populations. It explains that whaling dramatically reduced great whale species for their oil, meat, and other products. While some protections began in the 1930s, commercial whaling continued until a 1986 moratorium. Thanks to conservation efforts, some whale populations like gray and humpback whales have increased, but most remain well below original numbers due to threats like pollution, noise, ship strikes and entanglements. The document also discusses threats to smaller cetaceans like bycatch and direct hunting, and notes that a few countries like Japan, Norway and Iceland still engage in some limited commercial whaling today.
The King of the Sea: Making Fiji a Shark Sanctuary (English)
The document discusses establishing Fiji as a shark sanctuary by banning commercial shark fishing. It notes that sharks have existed for over 400 million years and help maintain marine ecosystem balance. However, up to 73 million sharks are killed annually for their fins, threatening many populations. While some sharks are caught as bycatch in Fiji, others are now targeted, with a warehouse observed processing about 9,000 fins monthly. The campaign aims to protect all 58 shark species in Fiji's waters by ending the shark trade and declaring Fiji's waters a shark sanctuary.

Ric o’barry
Ric O'Barry captured and trained dolphins in the 1960s for the TV show "Flipper", but one of the dolphins, Kathy, committed suicide in his arms, making him realize the cruelty of captivity. He spent 10 years building up the captivity industry and the next 35 years trying to tear it down. In 1989, he founded the Dolphin Project to advocate for releasing dolphins from captivity. He starred in the documentary "The Cove" about dolphin hunting in Japan and has freed over 25 dolphins from facilities around the world, though he was fined for releasing two dolphins that were not prepared to survive in the wild. O'Barry continues using stunts and activism to raise
Hawaii aquarium trade impacts
The document summarizes the case for ending Hawaii's reef wildlife trade. It discusses the history of the trade and increasing concerns about its impacts on fish populations and coral reef ecosystems. While the aquarium trade provides some economic benefits, it employs fewer than 100 collectors and generates only $1.2 million annually compared to the billions in value provided by reef wildlife viewing. Overcollection has led to population declines and local extinctions of many targeted species, especially endemic species. The document calls for supporting efforts to ban the reef wildlife trade in Hawaii to protect these vital ecosystems.
POL 195 &192 Research paper
The document analyzes the impacts of drift gillnet fishing off the California coast. It finds that the fishery produces high rates of bycatch, catching over 17,000 marine animals from 2005-2015 while only keeping around 11,000. Though the size of the fishery and rates of bycatch have decreased in recent years, 30% bycatch is still considered high. Data from National Observer Program reports show the fishery catches many species of concern, including endangered whales, sea turtles, sharks and dolphins. While regulations have aimed to reduce impacts, conflicts remain due to the fishery's threats to biodiversity and protected species.
Endangered marine life allie carlson
The document discusses five endangered marine species - bluefin tuna, cape penguin, coral, gray whale, and Hector's dolphin. It notes that overfishing and pollution from human activities are the primary threats driving increased endangerment of marine life. Specifically, practices like bottom trawling, dredging, coastal development, and shark finning damage habitats and food sources. The document warns that at the current unsustainable rates, there may be no fisheries left by 2050. This would seriously harm ocean ecosystems and have negative economic and social impacts for humans.

It describes phytoplankton like diatoms and dinoflagellates, which are primary producers, as well as zooplankton like copepods that feed on phytoplankton. It also discusses how some marine species like sea turtles, shrimp, and crabs spend part of their life as plankton. Overfishing and bycatch are negatively impacting fish stocks and endangered species like sea turtles, sharks, and tuna.
Killer whale
Killer whales live in oceans around the world, including the Arctic, Antarctic, and tropical waters. They prey on many marine animals from fish and squid to larger whales, seals, and sea otters. Their population has declined due to historical hunting, boat traffic disturbing their habitat, and pollution in the oceans. Conservation efforts aim to reduce noise and trash pollution to improve conditions for killer whales.

It_Runs_In_The_Blood
1) The study examined the physiological impacts on sea turtles accidentally captured by recreational fishermen in North Carolina and Virginia. Blood samples from captured turtles showed elevated lactic acid levels, indicating fatigue, but not at unrecoverable levels.
2) Many turtles also had hooks lodged in their bodies, requiring surgical removal and rehabilitation. With proper handling, captured turtles have a good chance of survival.
3) The researchers aim to expand outreach and education efforts to inform fishermen on proper turtle handling and reporting procedures to improve survival rates upon release and fill data gaps on recreational fishery interactions.
