A helicopter pilot speaks out about his experiences onboard a number of purse seine tuna fishing vessels operating in the Pacific.
His gruesome footage shows how the use of Fish Aggregation Devices is resulting in the bycatch of all sorts of marine life and contributes to the depletion of tuna stocks. Greenpeace is campaigning for more sustainable and less destructive tuna fisheries in the Pacific Ocean.
