Video: Save Black-faced Spoonbills from Fishing Debris
Video: Save Black-faced Spoonbills from fishing debris
This video of "Please save Black-faced Spoonbills from recreational fishing debris" was launched on May 22, the International Day for Biological Diversity, 2014.
The video can be seen on the Youtube.

The Black-faced Spoonbill, Platalea minor, is an internationally endangered species, with its population less than 3,000 as of 2014. It is astonishing that this vulnerable bird is damaged not only from coastal development and pollution, but also from leisure fishing debris such as fishing lines and hooks. We suggested changes of human actions needed to protect this beautiful bird from marine debris at the end of this video.
More information can be seen at the websites of Waterbirds Network Korea (http://cafe.daum.net/WNKorea) and Korea Marine Litter Institute (www.osean.net).
You can contact Dr. Yong Chang Jang (yongchangjang@hotmail.com) for any question.

The biggest beach of Korea covered with marine debris blown by Typhoon on August 4, 2014
The biggest beach of Korea covered with marine debris blown by Typhoon on August 4, 2014
By Dr. Yong Chang Jang,
researcher at Korea Marine Litter Institute
yongchangjang@hotmail.com
Hae Un Dae Beach on Busan City is covered with about 150 tons of marine debris blown by Typhoon Nakri on August 4, 2014.
The beach is the most favorite in Korea. On some hot days, even 1 million people visit the beach on one day.
The marine debris covering the beach is special, as it is mostly composed of one type o f wooden board. Some newspaper reported that (1) this wooden board was released by the Typhoon by accident from a nearby coast, (2) this wooden board was originally on a ship, which was stranded in front of Busan in the last July, and the freight was moved to a coast and kept, but, (3) as the lost freight-wooden board-was not tightly bind, they were released by the Typhoon.
The case shows the importance of marine debris management again. The pictures below was taken on August 4 by Ms. Tae Hee Kim, a member of Korea Marine Litter Institute.
