Red List Index (impacts of fisheries) [BIP]
Indicator description
Fishing practices can have a number of direct and indirect effects on non-target species for example, as bycatch, mortality in fishing gear, or through disturbance from fishing activities. This version of the Red List Index (RLI) shows trends in the status of birds and mammals worldwide driven only by the negative impacts of fisheries or the positive impacts of measures to control or manage fisheries sustainably.
