Mitigating the effect of by‐catch on endangered marine life
Fishing gears cause substantial impacts on the oceans and their ecosystems, and many marine animals, such as sea turtles, marine mammals, seabirds and elasmobranchs, end up as by ‐catch. In this paper, the most effective mitigation measures were investigated for each group, taking into account the fishing gear with which they interact most.
