A dolphin is caught as bycatch in the net of an Iranian flagged vessel while fishing for tuna in the Northern Indian Ocean.

These vessels often fish for tuna with 7 mile long gill nets, fishing with a gill net over 1.5 miles is illegal.

Greenpeace is in the Northern Indian Ocean to bear witness to the destructive fishing practices of under documented fishing fleets which it is estimated cause the bycatch of 80-100,000 cetaceans per year.
