CNR IRBIM video on interactions between cetaceans and professional fishing off the coast of the Marche region
Video from LifeDELFI Project
Monitoring activities on the interaction between cetaceans and professional fishing off the Marche coast continue as part of the project LifeDelfi. These striking images come to us from the CNR IRBIM team and document several groups of bottlenose dolphins interacting with the so-called ‘flying pair’ fishing system, aimed at catching small pelagics, mainly anchovies and sardines. With the cooperation of fishermen, experts will be able to test and improve the effectiveness of visual deterrents mounted on fishing nets.
The images and video are by Daniel Li Veli from the CNR IRBIM headquarters in Ancona.
