A young British fisherman has been airlifted to hospital with leg injuries after being bitten by a shark off the coast of Cornwall. The 21-year-old, named as Max Berryman, was bitten by the Porbeagle shark after it was hauled aboard a fishing boat yesterday morning.

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
