Description
"They see us, we see them". Flying low on board a Falcon 50 jet, members of the French navy monitor the coasts off Brittany for boats that would be infringing on the month-long fishing ban. Every day they cover an area of 28,000 km2 in the Bay of Biscay where fishing is banned for some 450 vessels until 20 February. The ban aims at preventing the accidental capture of dolphins and porpoises. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
