🌍 Happy World Environment Day from our team! 🌍 For decades, we've been tagging, tracking, listening to, and videoing fish to understand their behaviour and habitats, helping protect them & the ecosystems they depend on for the future. This is what we do! #WorldEnvironmentDay‌

Could a shipwreck serve as a marine life refuge? While it seems surprising, researchers at University of Plymouth investigated several shipwrecks and found lots of living things, especially in areas that allow bottom-towed fishing!

Pollack is a recreationally important species, yet little is known about this fish. Recreational anglers & charter skippers have been working with researchers to learn more through #PollackFISP. Find more about the project in our new video youtube.com/watch?v=Tp0K5a…

We know remarkably little about pollack, despite the importance of this beautiful fish. How far do they travel? Where do they go? What do they eat? We’re leading a project to tackle these questions and more. youtu.be/Tp0K5aXoY4A
