Discarded sharks are released alive, although the fate of these shark’s post-release is widely unknown. Species-specific post-release survival studies are lacking and inhibit a full understanding of the effects on the population. Through an integrated approach of post-capture and post-release survival indicators across various fishing methods, survival of four species of shark were assessed. Results showed 100% of tiger, sandbar, and Port Jackson sharks and 75% of dusky sharks survived the capture and release process. | en_US |
