Fish stocks are being severely depleted, marine habitats are threatened and marine pollution is on the rise due to discarded fishing gear. This equipment is generally from illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, leading to incidental fishing and sometimes ghost fishing. In this study, data obtained from reports produced by the Environmental Military Police in Santa Catarina, Brazil, on gill nets fixed in the coastal area and at the baseline limit of this state, for the period of 2019 to 2020, were analyzed. The results show a large number of seized and collected illegal fishing gear, as well as mammals, fish and birds found entangled in the nets.
由于丢弃的渔具，鱼类资源正在严重枯竭，海洋生境受到威胁，海洋污染也在上升。这些渔具通常来自非法、未报告和无管制的捕捞活动，导致附带捕捞，有时甚至是幽灵捕捞。在这项研究中，分析了 2019 年至 2020 年期间，巴西圣卡塔琳娜州环境宪兵队在沿海地区和该州基线边界固定的刺网报告中获得的数据。结果表明，大量被扣押和收缴的非法渔具，以及在网中发现的哺乳动物、鱼类和鸟类。
