Episode Details

This is the second part of our special series about tuna fishing in the Pacific. According to fisheries officials in the Pacific, one of the most difficult to pin down breaches when it comes to overfishing is the ability to monitor catch - and ensure compliance with fishing licences. In an effort to combat this - fisheries observers are stationed on many commercial fishing vessels to keep watch - but it is also considered one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. And this story was supported by the Pulitzer Centre.
