ISSF Vice President of Science Dr. Victor Restrepo talks with “How to Protect the Ocean” host Andrew Lewin about ISSF’s report Snapshot of Large-Scale Tuna Purse Seine Fishing Fleets and what it shows about the number of vessels, catch limits and conservation measures in the world’s tuna fisheries.
They cover bluefin tuna conservation, the role fisheries observers and processing companies play in sustainable seafood, and why managing fishing capacity across the regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs) is so difficult.
