Cape Town Pelagics is unique: they donate all profits to seabird research and conservation, including Birdlife International's Albatross Task Force (ATF)
Since its establishment in 2005, BirdLife’s Albatross Task Force (ATF) has had remarkable success in reducing albatross and petrel bycatch in targeted fisheries around the world.
Using a range of at-sea mitigation measures, the ATF has demonstrated that it is possible to reduce drastically seabird bycatch,typically by as much as 85% and often over 90%.
Indeed, in South Africa, albatross bycatch in the Hake demersal trawl fleet was reduced by 99% over six years! source: http://www.birdlife.org/
