Reducing Depredation, Bycatch and Conflict with Dr Victoria Camilieri-Asch | S2E4 (Part 2)

How can fishers, scientists, and communities work together to reduce shark depredation?In Part 2 of this episode of the Shark Trust Podcast, host Mark Stokes-Packer continues his conversation with marine neurobiologist Dr Victoria Camilieri-Asch about shark depredation, fisher-shark interactions, shark sensory biology, and coexistence.The conversation explores how sharks use electroreception to detect tiny electrical signals in the water, why different species respond differently to deterrents, and why future technology must be developed with shark biology, fisheries needs, and real-world practicality in mind.Please like, share, subscribe, and leave a comment.
