Operation Driftnet
While patrolling in January 2016 for illegal fishing vessels the Sea Shepherd vessel the Steve Irwin came across a fleet of six vessels using driftnets.
Upon seeing the Steve Irwin the fleet abandoned its net and started to run. Driftnets were banned by a United Nations Moratorium in 1992, solely because of the destruction they wreak upon the oceans. Driftnets catch everything in their path, as a 100m deep wall of net floats just beneath the surface.

Retrieving the driftnet
The crew of the Steve got to see how destructive driftnets are when they collected 5 km of abandoned net and recovered 321 animals across 12 different species, including sharks, seals and dolphins that had drowned in the net, as well as the target species, the critically endangered Southern Bluefin Tuna and Albacore.
