Hunting in particular, due to massive meat consuption and because of the amount of protein available form meat, hunting had been minimized. In fact, in some of the world, hunting is now seasonal. People are not allowed to hunt wild animals in set time. Ths is to let these animal reproduced again before they will be hunted.
Fishing, on the other hand, has almost the situation from hunting. Fishing is also regulated nowadays. In fact, there’s that specific diameter of the fishing net to used in a ccordance to how far a fisherman or a fishing vessel from the shore. This is to protect some other water species not to be caught.
Further, both environment has now being observed due to the fact that the fishing ground has been thoroughly exploited this days. Ths is the reason why laws about endagered species is being strictly implemented.
But because of some uncertainties, humans needs to provide food for thier family and since the sea turtle is long endagered, they have multiplied unexpectedly. In fact, in some part of the Philippines Island, sea turtle are reaturning to lay their eggs. The community in that place is really protectng these creatures.
Since Taiwan and the Philipines are close neighbors, in fact, you can go to and pro for usng an ordinary fishing boat i just a couple of hours. From this scenario, Taiwanese fishermen had seen the abundacne of sea turtle in the Philippine. This had triggered them to catch the sea turtles.
