Australian super trawler ban could help whales and dolphins

The Australian government has announced that it is to stop so-called super trawlers from fishing in Australia’s territorial waters, a move which could help whales and dolphins that get accidentally caught, injured or killed in the vessel’s huge nets. Sadly the ban only applies to boats 427 feet (130 meters) or longer. These vessels can cast nets up to 1,000 feet long.
