The Unseen Crisis of Sharks and Rays in Senegal

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents a conservative quantitative assessment of shark and ray landings and trade in Senegal, revealing extensive exploitation of threatened species. Surveys at two major artisanal processing sites in the Casamance region recorded over 170,000 individuals, mostly rays, with nearly all biomass comprising species at risk of extinction, and ...

Contemporary Methods for Capturing Juvenile Salmonids in the Marine Environment

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 160-178, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Anadromous salmonids play vital roles in marine and freshwater ecosystems. The most abundant of these fishes—Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.)—are integral to coastal ecosystems and communities across the North Pacific Rim, but numerous populations are experiencing dramatic declines, particularly towards the south of their range.

Designing and evaluating alternative livelihoods for shark conservation: a case study on thresher sharks in Alor Island, Indonesia

Oryx
The pelagic thresher shark Alopias pelagicus is an Evolutionarily Distinct and Globally Endangered species primarily threatened by overfishing. Indonesia is the world's largest shark fishing nation, and in Alor Island, thresher sharks have been a primary

Integration of Multiple Data Types to Document Spatial Effort in a Recreational Fishery for Highly Migratory Species in Relation to Offshore Wind Development

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 33-48, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The expansion of offshore wind interests in US waters has raised concern over potential adverse impacts to fisheries activity and productivity. Yet evidence‐based platforms for assessing those impacts are lacking for many recreational fisheries.

Age and growth of the bigeye thresher shark,Alopias superciliosus, from the pelagic longline fisheries in the tropical northeastern Atlantic Ocean, determined by vertebral band counts [PDF]

Aquatic Living Resources, 2011
The bigeye thresher, Alopias supercilious, is commonly caught as bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries tar- geting swordfish. Little information is yet available on the biology of this species, however. As part of an ongoing study, observers sent aboard fishing vessels have been collecting set of information that includes samples of vertebrae, with the
