Industrial purse-seine fishing vessels catch more tuna than all other types of vessels combined, surrounding and scooping up entire schools of fish, and also non-target species such as turtles, sharks, whales and dolphins.
Sea Shepherd's mission on Operation Sola Stella is to stop illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing in Liberia in partnership with the Liberian Ministry of National Defense. Using the M/Y Bob Barker as a patrol vessel, Sea Shepherd crew assist the Liberian Coast Guard in monitoring and inspecting industrial fishing vessels to make sure they're not operating illegally or under-reporting their catch.
