Day #4: Swimming with the Sharks : Activity 3

Bonus Activity: Hector’s dolphins are a very special native animal found only in New Zealand. They are the smallest dolphin in the world measuring 1.5 metres long and they are quite rare. Sadly, many Hector’s dolphins are killed every year when they get caught in large fishing nets and can’t escape. Some people have argued that fishermen shouldn’t be allowed to fish in Farewell Spit in order to protect the dolphins living there. What do you think? On your blog, tell us whether you think that fishing in Farewell Spit should be banned (stopped).

Yes, fishing there should be banned, they know that that area is confined and a really alluring place for most sea life to go there!! Fishermen should be aware about their surroundings and care for the sea life which lay in those areas, especially if they are rare! So I would say, put an end to fishing in the Farewell Spit. I have many logic's, to support my statement, above! Including the population would be decreasing, there will be peace, (well no quite, but a little) between both argument sides and this is another definition of Animal Cruelty, expect in different concepts!
