Save the dolphins

Finally an invention that makes sense and is based on something good.. A lot of fisherman shoot (or use dynamite!) on dolphins when they fishing and encouter dolphins that are hunting for fish around or in the nets. A (dutch) guy, thought that there must be a way to trick the dolphins, so that their sonar system doesn't pick up that there is fish in the surroundings of the net. After a couple of years research he made a little applyance that can be attached to the net and keeps dolphins away! It only costs 50 Euro, so much less than dynamite and bullets and a lot friendlier to our swimming brothers :) Posted by mvdb at December 18, 2002 12:02 PM
