Bycatch in gillnet fisheries–an overlooked threat to waterbird populations
Bird mortality in fishing gear is a global conservation issue and it is recognised that bycatch
in industrial longline and trawl fisheries threatens several seabird species. Little is known
however about the effects of bycatch in small-scale gillnet fisheries on bird populations.
Here we review 30 studies reporting bird bycatch in coastal gillnet fisheries in the Baltic Sea
and the North Sea region in order to assess the magnitude of this problem and potential
effects on bird populations. All species of diving birds that occur in the study region …
