26 IMPACTS: Conclusions Sustainable bycatch rates maybe <2%.

27 IMPACTS: Conclusions Sustainable bycatch rates maybe <2%. Management should be conservative, reverse burden of proof.

28 IMPACTS: Conclusions Sustainable bycatch rates may be <2%. Management should be conservative, reverse burden of proof. Cannot assess impact without systematic collection of data.

29 IMPACTS: Conclusions Sustainable bycatch rates maybe <2%. Management should be conservative, reverse burden of proof. Cannot assess impact without systematic collection of data. Need kill rate, age & sex composition, stock ID, fishing effort, population size.

30 IMPACTS: Conclusions Sustainable bycatch rates maybe <2%. Management should be conservative, reverse burden of proof. Cannot assess impact without systematic collection of data. Need kill rate, age & sex composition, stock ID, fishing effort, population size. Coastal fisheries most urgent to address.

59 WHY PINGERS WON T WORK! (Dawson, Perrin, Read and others, 1990s)

60 WHY PINGERS WON T WORK! If entanglement is not survivable, it cannot be a learning experience. (Dawson, Perrin, Read and others, 1990)

61 WHY PINGERS WON T WORK! If entanglement is not survivable, it cannot be a learning experience. When distracted by foraging, animals may not perceive the net or see it as an impassible barrier. (Dawson, Perrin, Read and others, 1990)

62 WHY PINGERS WON T WORK! If entanglement is not survivable, it cannot be a learning experience. When distracted by foraging, animals may not perceive the net or see it as an impassible barrier. Even if sounds repel, entanglement may reoccur after initial drop, due to habituation. (Dawson, Perrin, Read and others, 1990)
