Sea animals in comics. Volume 5

in the fifth volume of the French series "Sea animals in comics" the authors focused on the problems of marine environment protection and rational use of natural resources. Readers will learn how important it is to regulate commercial fishing in order to prevent a sharp decline in the number, or even extinction, of many species; what are the advantages of artisanal fishing over industrial fishing, what is "by-catch" (in other words, unintentional harvesting) and what damage does it cause to underwater ecosystems; what causes the pollution of rivers, seas and oceans with plastic and other waste; why the number of jellyfish is growing all over the world and how this affects the natural balance.
However, those who managed to fall in love with the series not only for scientific accuracy and careful selection of information, but also for sparkling humor, will also not be disappointed; what are the stories about a culinary dolphin or a phantom crab, a cunning crustacean Eurydice beautiful or a long-lived Mina, an impenetrable tunic or an unforgettable firefly squid ... And - cherry on the cake! - the answer to a question that sounds, frankly, somewhat unexpected: do fish exist at all? Someone like it, but the lamprey has his own opinion on this matter ...
And from the material at the end of the book you will learn about how an exotic newcomer settled in the Barents Sea - the king crab, which was introduced by Russian scientists.
