#BREAKING: Oceana delivers $1M to save sea turtles, whales, dolphins and other marine life from California’s deadly drift gillnet fishery. . These funds, made possible by the Marisla Foundation, Cinco Hermanos Fund, Offield Family Foundation, and Sue J. Gross Foundation, as well as several families and individuals, will assist in the state’s efforts to help fishermen who hand in their nets and relinquish their drift gillnet permits. Mile-long drift gillnets are meant to capture swordfish and are responsible for entangling, injuring and killing non-targeted species, like sea turtles and dolphins.

#Repost @oceana ・・・ @oceana_bze's latest campaign is helping to raise awareness for the destruction gillnets cause on our ecosystems. Gillnets kill anything that makes its way into the net, no matter what species is being targeted. Though their photos use human models to show the devastation, gillnets are a real threat to Belize's most iconic wildlife and must be stopped. Follow @oceana_bze for more photos from the campaign.
