Popis: | International audience; Commercial fisheries currently pose a seriousthreat at sea to the conservation of a number of pelagicseabirds. However, these interactions are complex, andreports on population-specific bycatch in the high seas arescarce. Here we report the case of an Indian yellow-nosedalbatross Thalassarche carteri re-sighted on AmsterdamIsland after an apparent capture by an Indonesian longliner,as indicated by a message attached to the bird. Thisrecord demonstrates that Amsterdam birds may interactwith long-liners indeed, at least during winter, and thatsuch interactions are not systematically lethal. We suggestthat bycatch sub-lethal effects should be investigated atcolonies with high risks of individual capture at sea. |
