I also want to thank all the stakeholders, particularly the Tahltan Guide & Outfitters Association, who are collaborating closely with the Tahltan Nation to find ways to collect further data and create positive initiatives that help us make better wildlife decisions and policies together. In the past year, the Tahltan Central Government, through the work of our Wildlife Department and Lands Department, has increased our involvement with wildlife initiatives within our territory. They successfully lobbied to create progressive wildlife regulations which resulted in new Limited Entry Hunting (LEH) areas, protection for areas highly utilized by Tahltan community members, more President, Tahltan Central Government restrictive rules on moose hunting and others.

  • The Missing Link in Marine Ecosystem-Based Management
    The missing link in marine ecosystem-based management Peter Arbo, University of Tromsø – The Arctic University of Norway Phạm Thị Thanh Thủy, University of Nha Trang, Viet Nam Introduction The world’s coastal and marine areas are under increasing pressure. Issues of concern include depletion of fish stocks, pollution, destruction of habitats, and biodiversity loss (Halpern et al. 2008; Hoegh-Guldberg and Bruno 2010; MEA 2005; Sherman and Hempel 2008; UNEP 2006; WBGU 2013). These changes are mainly driven by expanding human activity, spurred by demographic change, economic growth, technological innovations, and globalization of industry and trade. The coastal and marine areas are heavily affected by land-based activities and pollution sources, but there is also an increasing interest in the direct exploitation of marine spaces and marine resources. Extensive fishing and shipping activities are now accompanied by rapid development of aquaculture, offshore oil and gas, mining, renewable energy, tourism, and numerous other uses of the ocean. While the sea has always served as a vital source of nutrition, a transport artery, and a repository for sewage and waste, the present human impacts are unparalleled in scale and scope. The increasing diversity and intensity of marine activities create, on the one hand, potential user conflicts. Various types of users may have overlapping and mutual exclusive spatial claims and interests, or their activities may have adverse effects on other stakeholders. On the other hand, the activities may affect the marine ecosystems and alter their structure, functioning, and productivity. These two aspects are closely linked. If the increasing socio- economic activities are not regulated and conflicts reduced, the marine ecosystems will be degraded, and if the health of the ecosystems is not maintained, their ability to provide ecosystem goods and services and to support current and future uses will be damaged.

When these stocks have reached commercial exhaustion, fisheries have focused on the next lower trophic level, serially depleting marine resources in what has become known as “Fishing down food webs” (Pauly et al. 1998). Among commercially exploited fish, all three species of bluefin tuna (Pacific, Southern and Atlantic) have undergone some of the most significant declines in abundance and geographic range contractions (Worm and Tittensor 2011).
