Trawling Documentation in the Pacific Ocean

Resource - Greenpeace asset

A catch of orange roughy and some bycatch species in the net hauled by the Belize-registered deep sea trawler ‘Chang Xing’ in international waters in the Tasman Sea. Greenpeace along with more than a thousand scientists are supporting the call for a moratorium on high seas bottom trawling, because of the vast amount of marine life that is destroyed by this fishing method.
