More than 1,200 dolphins washed up on France’s Atlantic coast between January and May, most of them with wounds suggesting that the mammals had died after being trapped in fishing nets. And for every carcass that ends up on a beach, several more decay at sea, wildlife biologists say. So why are so many #dolphins dying now? Most people agree that fishing is responsible, but the consensus stops there. Fishermen claim that the unintentional captures, also known as bycatch, remain unusual, if not exceptional, while scientists warn that fishing vessels now represent a major threat to dolphins. Activists from an environmental group called @seashepherd have just completed a 2-month effort to document the deaths and which vessels cause them — leaving local fishermen feeling unfairly targeted. “We’ve never seen so many dolphins in the waters, and Sea Shepherd accuses us of being murderers,” said Jean Lagarde, 75, known as #LaRochelle’s oldest fisherman. @elianpeltier shot this video.
