Overview of the causes of the decline of the marine predator – Orca – Killer Whale
Causes need to be covered, such as:
Fishing and overfishing (recreational, longlining, maximum sustainable yield, catch per unit effort, open access, bycatch, ghost fishing, ghost fleet screening)
Climate change/ocean acidification
Marine pollution
Eutrophication, dead zones
Acoustic feeder ballast water
Subsidies and “slavery-at-sea” as drivers of overfishing
Aquarium trades (CITES)
Why is the decline occurring and/or allowed to occur?
Economics of overfishing like Government subsidies
Growing populations and increasing demand
What does the future outcome look like for marine predators?
