A shark and dolphin walk into a fishing industry conference…

We went to the annual Seafood NZ Conference last week to deliver a strong message to the fishing industry and the government - we need more ocean protection.

With the help of Sharon the Shark and Hāna Hector, the dolphin who came along with our friends from Dolphin Defenders, we met attendees from the fishing industry at the Seafood NZ Conference.

The response was mixed. Hāna even got kicked out of the conference!
