5 Animal Rights Campaigns That Managed to Screw Over Animals | Cracked.com: "Well, not quite. While dolphins aren't sucked into FADs, absolutely everything else is. For every 1,000 tons of tuna, more than 100,000 random animals are unintentionally hauled up and killed, including endangered species of sharks, manta rays, and sea turtles. That's roughly 100 times the number of dolphins that were being caught in drift nets. So, in actuality, "dolphin safe" is just a euphemism for "wholesale massacre in a can."
Predictably, groups like Greenpeace are now trying to get rid of FADs, which, judging by the way the whole drift-net outrage went, will probably result in fishermen just blowing up the entire goddamn ocean."
