SUSTAINABLE FISH DEVICES

Post by aukepalmhof » Thu May 23, 2019 9:55 pm

Australian Post issued in 2019 a set of three stamps and a miniature sheet with images of fish and a fishing boat with a device

Al three stamps depict a stylized fishing vessel.

Stamp illustration is by Dr. Lindsay Marshall, a natural history artist and a shark scientist. As well as an illustration of each fish species, in the background is a simplified graphic of a technique deployed in commercial fisheries to minimize environmental impacts.
Toothfish and a longline fishing vessel, with a bird exclusion device.
Blue Grenadier with a stern trawler and a seal excluder device.
Tiger Flathead with a stern trawler and a mesh to reduce by-catch.

More information on these devices is given on:
