在印度洋,商業捕撈吞拿魚使用流刺網,導致每年平均有八萬隻小型鯨豚類被誤捕。1950年至2018年期間,約有410萬隻小型鯨豚類被誤捕,令海豚數量下跌近九成。除了鯨魚及海豚,其他海洋生物像鯊魚及海龜等都受到流刺網捕漁威脅。

In Indian Ocean, commercial tuna fishing is using gill nets and its causing about 80,000 small cetaceans caught as by-catch each year. Between 1950-2018, 4.1 million small cetaceans were caught and the number of dolphins have dropped by almost 90%. beside dolphins and whales, other marine species like sharks and turtles are also threatened by these gill nets.
