Description

Devastating economic damage, loss of biodiversity, slavery and violating human rights: illegal fishing is a serious criminal offence that is almost impossible to regulate.

At the end of the episode, you will hear from aerial photographer George Steinmetz about his time spent on a squid boat in the South Atlantic.
