competing for the same foods. The foods the adults eat are not the foods the juvenile eats so they are not intruding and competing against each other. That separation in trophic levels assists in the survival of the juveniles to the adult stage. 4. Not all adults feed at a high trophic level. Whale sharks (50 ft) are the largest fish and feed on plankton and small fish‚ while Great White sharks (20 ft) are the largest carnivorous fish and feed on sea lions‚ seals and large fish. Blue whales (100

FADs are large nets that catch fish when there are enough in the area. Their catch can be up to 80% bycatch‚ which negatively affects the populations of already endangered and overfished species. The removals of these FADS are necessary due to their low accuracy in a catch and destructive nature to the marine ecosystem
