Evidence of low spatial overlap between grey seals and a specific whitefish fishery off the west coast of Ireland

2012-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Competition between seals and man for valuable fish resources is a long-standing contentious issue and of concern with fish stocks in global decline. Estimating resource overlap between seals and fisheries is difficult and generally achieved by comparing seal consumption with fisheries catches and stock size; however spatial partitioning may mean that marine mammals and fisheries are not actually depleting the sam...
