Checking illegal trade of marine life in Bangladesh: A long way to go Although officials still believe that fishermen do not intentionally catch sharks and rays, conservationists say fins, cartilage, gill plates, liver and other parts are smuggled in the guise of ‘dry fish’ from Cox’s Bazar to some South-East Asian countries via Myanmar Although the netting of nine genera and 52 species of marine fish, including whales, dolphins, sharks, and rays is prohibited in Bangladesh, hunting sharks and rays continues unabated. Officials still believe that fishermen do not intentionally catch sharks and rays, and Bangladesh is still not considered a major exporter of shark derivatives, but conservationists have rung the alarm as fins, cartilage, gill plates, liver and other parts are smuggled in disguise of 'dry fish' from Cox's Bazar to some South-East Asian countries via Myanmar.

Nature’s best friend: Scientists train dogs to sniff out dangerous invasive species Dogs can sniff out invasive fish in lakes without even seeing them, new research suggests. In lakes and rivers around the world, carp are wreaking havoc on local species. Native to central Asia, these common fish infest freshwater lakes and rivers, outcompeting other animals. But scientists have discovered a new tool in the fight against the invasive creature - the powerful nose of man’s best friend. According to a study by Australian and New Zealand scientists, specially-trained canines can detect whether invasive carp are present in water. In fact, they’re even better than lab tools. “(Our) findings suggest that dogs could provide an accurate and highly sensitive method of invasive fish detection,” the study authors write.

Narochansky Eel and the Art of Ukha: A Taste of Belarusian Tradition Nestled within the pristine waters of Lake Naroch, the Narochansky eel is a prized delicacy in Belarusian cuisine. This freshwater eel, known for its rich, tender meat, has long been a staple for local fishermen and culinary enthusiasts alike. Traditionally, it is smoked or prepared in hearty stews, offering a deep, smoky flavor that pairs beautifully with rustic Belarusian dishes. One of the most beloved ways to enjoy fish in Belarus is through ukha a traditional fish soup that has been cherished for centuries. Ukha is not just a dish—it is an experience, often prepared outdoors over an open flame, bringing people together in a celebration of nature and good food. The soup is made by simmering fresh fish (including eel), potatoes, onions, and fragrant herbs, creating a light yet flavorful broth. Some variations include a splash of vodka for an extra layer of warmth and depth. The combination of Narochansky e

A young brown bear searches for food at low tide, looking for crabs or small fish under rocks. A bear walks along the shore eating crabs and barnacles at low tide and grasses in Glendale Cove, British Columbia, Canada. Brown bears are one of the most powerful land mammals. The bear's front paws, armed with powerful claws, are a universal tool with which the beast digs a den, digs up the holes of marmots and ground squirrels, turns over rocks that are too heavy for humans, breaks trees, and catches fish. Claws are excellent ground hooks. Thanks to them, bears can easily move along steep slopes, where it is difficult for a person to stay. Grizzly bears are one of the strongest land mammals, their strength is comparable to that of 3-5 humans. They can easily flip over large rocks in search of food. In the video, a young bear turns over a rock with one paw to find small fish and crustaceans hiding at low tide.

Angling is a fishing technique that uses a fish hook or "angle" (from Old English angol) attached to a fishing line to tether individual fish in the mouth. The fishing line is usually manipulated via a fishing rod, although rodless techniques such as handlining and longlining also exist. Modern angling rods are usually fitted with a reel that functions as a cranking device for storing, retrieving and releasing out the line, although Tenkara fishing and cane pole fishing are two rod-angling methods that do not use any reel. The hook itself can be additionally weighted with a dense tackle called a sinker, and is typically dressed with an appetizing bait to attract the fish and enticing it into swallowing the hook, but sometimes an inedible fake bait with multiple attached hooks (known as a lure) is used instead of a single hook with edible bait. A bite indicator, such as a float or a quiver tip, is often used to relay underwater status of the hook to the surface.

Fishing in Latvia Fishing for food has been a topical activity since the beginning of humankind. However, even today it has not lost its influence and significance. It is a great way to be alone with nature or to spend time with family or like-minded people. The diversity of nature offers the opportunity for a chilled family holiday by the sea, river or lake, and allows a passionate fisherman's dream of a big catch to be fulfilled. There are many different fish species in Latvian waters, and none of them are poisonous or dangerous to health. The most popular of these are pike, pike-perch, trout, carp, tench, perch, vimba, roach, bream, flounder and smelt, but the biggest pride of a fisherman is catching salmon or sea trout. Several fish species spend most of their lives at sea, only arriving in rivers during spawning, but some of these fish live and spawn in Latvia's rivers and lakes.

Burbot. Is it hunting or fishing? The burbot (Lota lota), often referred to as "gelod" in Russian, is a fascinating fish species that thrives in the cold, freshwater rivers and lakes across Russia. This nocturnal predator is widely distributed throughout the country, from the European part of Russia to Siberia and the Far East. It prefers deep, slow-moving waters with muddy or sandy bottoms, making it particularly well-suited to the vast network of lakes and rivers found in Russia's diverse landscapes. In many parts of Russia, burbot holds cultural significance as both a source of sustenance and a symbol of resilience against harsh conditions. Its firm white flesh is prized for its flavor and versatility, whether smoked, fried, or made into soup. During festive occasions, dishes featuring burbot are often prepared to celebrate the bounty of the winter harvest. The burbot, a fascinating and resilient freshwater fish, has developed an intriguing survival strategy to cope with low oxyg

Living in Alaska, another part of our efforts to be self-sufficient is living off the land as much as possible. “Filling your freezer” is a common phrase here, and there are a lot of ways to do it. Many of you know there are still a lot of places in the U.S. where we can still do this. We’re blessed to be able to fish in rivers, lakes and the ocean, and hunt for a variety of wild game. We do have a little advantage up here for that, (but we also pay a bit of a price for it). Besides fishing and hunting, there a lot of foraging opportunities as well, mostly in the summer, but some when it’s cold and dark too. Hunting and fishing is huge up here, and a lot of folks live here just for that. There are lots more things you can do besides these examples. What are some of the things you all hunt, fish, and forage for?

Montana judge to issue decision on wolf hunting and trapping Montana hunters and trappers await a decision that should come sometime this week as a temporary restraining order that immediately changed the state’s wolf season expires today. District Court Judge Chris Abbot issued the restraining order earlier this month that applied to Lewis and Clark counties. The order suspended the state’s regulations, which allowed for expanded wolf hunting and trapping. On Monday, Abbott heard testimony regarding the issue. He said he would decide today whether the temporary limits placed on wolf hunting should continue or if the quotas and hunting methods “pending a trial over changes in the way the state estimates the size of the wolf population” to inform hunting quotas should continue, according to the Associated Press. In October, WildEarth Guardians and Project Coyote filed a lawsuit, alleging that Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (Montana FWP) and the Montana Fish and Wildlife Commissio

Hunting with cormorants. China 1949. Mankind has learned to attract animals to its hunting a long time ago. Falconry existed in the Middle Ages, and greyhounds, hounds, terriers, and other hunting dog breeds were traditionally used in Europe. But the people of East Asia managed to surprise everyone. They not only decided to improve the ancient fishing process, but also attracted waterfowl for this purpose — the well-known cormorants. Cormorant hunting is an ancient tradition that has been around for thousands of years. Its essence is that the cormorant hunts fish not for itself, but for the person who taught it. It was the one who taught them, because all the cormorants involved in this process are trained birds. They know their owner very well, navigate well among the boats on the water and obediently give the caught fish. However, there is a small subtlety here. It is very difficult to convince a bird of prey not to eat its prey. No amount of training will be able to kill the

Day 2 of 5. Oklahoma. I packed up camp on the lake and headed to the river. The water was all the way up to 52 degrees after being in the low 30s the week before! I setup on a deep hole (20ft. deep) with a big inside eddy. I caught a 3 pound dinner cat within 2 minutes of setting up, then another small fish 2 minutes after that, then this surprise January Flathead about 5 minutes later! 3 fish within the first 15 minutes was a great start then it died down. After a couple hours and some missed bites I put 2 rods on the downstream side of the hole in about 6 feet of water and shortly after I got a good blue! I had fried catfish for dinner and slept like a baby with no bites the rest of the night. I love camping on the river and not just observing wildlife but being apart of it. From Coyotes howling to wild pigs squealing to big blue cats biting the crap out of me I love it!

Sitka DIY: Doing Time in the Sitka Silver Mine Doing Time in the Sitka Silver Mine One of the definitions of the word “mine” is: a rich source of supply. In that regard, it seems that Alaska is a fish mine for many, with plentiful fish available to harvest and enjoy. Certain species are more plentiful than others. For example, Chinook salmon are the largest but least abundant of all salmon in North America. They are arguably the most desired by sport anglers. However, they’ve been at a period of low abundance for the past several years. Pink salmon are the smallest and most numerous. However, they’re the least desired. Perhaps it’s their size, or that their meat is not as rich or as deeply colored as other species. Coho salmon strike an interesting balance. They’re not as large as Chinook but are larger than pinks. Their fat content is not as high as a Chinook’s, but the meat is flavorful and richly colored. Coho are much more numerous than Chinook, but not as numerous as pinks. Coho

Talarik Creek Lodge: Hunting for Trophy Rainbow Trout I answered him that it was not, and he shrugged off the 18-inch Arctic grayling on the end of my line like it was a piece of weed. My wife had sent us fishing that evening to catch some fresh grayling for dinner and our goal was now achieved, with four large, translucent-white-fleshed fish having been plucked from the cold waters of the Newhalen River. The author’s son Lucas with what he calls “a real fish” also defined as any rainbow trout over 20 inches caught on a fly rod. What is it about rainbow trout that incites such excitement? Why is it that when fishing guides congregate around a fire the conversation always finds its way to rainbows, not salmon, not char, not pike, but definitely rainbows? “Keep it in the water,” “Careful, don’t drop it,” and “Nice release,” are all phrases I’ve heard said and spoken myself. I have a personal admiration for the green-speckled creatures, and rainbow trout fishing has a cult following tha
