TPO 37

The reading and the lecture is about the use of turtle excluder device (TED) to protect the endangered sea turtle species. The reading states that TEDs are not that effective for several reasons. However, the lecturer casts doubt on what is presented in the text and refuses all the reasons mentioned in the reasons.

The lecturer argues that the first reason, turtles get trapped rarely, is not true because many shrimpers catch thousands of turtle every year. Even though many escape through th eturtle passages, the cost as a whole would not be too high. The reading passage, however, argues that shrimpers would not be able to catch much turtles due to the escape of turtles and this method will cost them too much so it not an effective way to protect the turtles.

Regarding the second reason, shortening the time limit to keep net under water, the lecturer explains that it is impossible to impose time limits for keeping net under. Government can not monitor the time during which shrimpers using nets to capture turtles. The reading passage gives the opposite view.

Finally, the lecturer objects the third reason - not useful for larger species. She points out that lager TEDs can also be made to catch larger turtle species. Once large TEDs are produced this will not be problem. This is in direct contradiction with the claim in the reading passage that larger species will not fit in the TEDs.
