摘要:The semi-flexible exclusion grid constructed from a combination of braided stainless wire
and pipe appears to reduce the bycatch of dolphins by almost half. Dolphins are able to swim
out the mouth of the net, or exit through the escape opening, after interacting with the grid.
However, an undetermined number of dolphins may exit the net underwater in poor condition
with unknown chances of survival.
The semi-flexible exclusion grid also reduces the bycatch of turtles, large sharks and large rays.
