From Australia to Norway, from Mauritius to Spain and across great expanses of the Southern Ocean, Earth Report has conducted a remarkable undercover investigation into the destruction of a species known as the Patagonian toothfish. Called 'bass' on commercial markets, its white flesh is so succulent it fetches the highest prices. In Part Two of White Gold we tackle the pirates who make millions of dollars poaching the fish to the brink of extinction. We show how a tiny pressure group in Australia has been logging and tracking pirate boats on the Internet and how it has helped close down the illegal operations in Norway. We travel to Norway and Spain to confront the men who mastermind the operations of the pirate vessels from thousands of kilometres away. And we show how the French Navy deals with the captured pirate vessels - it sinks them.
From 1999
