Description:Protected species bycatch occurs in longline fisheries worldwide with accurate documentation limited to trips with a fishery observer onboard. Electronic monitoring (EM) provides an additional data stream to detect these protected species interactions and to assess the likelihood of an animal’s survival after their incidental capture and release from fishing gear. In this study, protected species interactions were reviewed from EM video collected from the Hawaii longline fisheries to evaluate if determinations of mortality or injury severity (serious or non-serious) could be made for cetaceans, and if the percent likelihood of post-interaction mortality could be assigned for sea turtles.
