Primes

• Bycatch
  • Fisheries (origin substrate): trawl, longline, and gillnet gear capture target species and also non-target sharks, turtles, dolphins, juveniles, and seabirds; the discarded bycatch is frequently larger by tonnage than the landed target.

    This sourceProposes a global bycatch definition (catch unused or unmanaged) and estimates bycatch at ~40.4% of global marine catch — frames it as a structural consequence of finite gear selectivity.
