The second part of
the Greenland Halibut season was an intense two-week period with many
whale sightings and the fishermen proved again to be a great asset in
gathering data.
Fishermen of M/S Egilson
Tiu joined the fishermen of M/S Egilson to see the depredation for
herself. As fate would have it, that particular boat caught a halibut
with spermwhale toothmarks on it. Our research team will now reside
to analyze the data, make trials with the underwater acoustic array
and plan our future moves.
Thank You all!
