Fishing nets, packaging and other debris threaten wildlife in some of the ocean’s deepest reef ecosystems. Scientists in the pacific islands have observed ghost nets tumbling across expansive coral reef environments. Marine animals like turtles and dolphins get entangled in them and die. Between 500 000 and one million tons of ghost nets and other fishing equipment are abandoned in the ocean each year, making up 10% of all marine litter.

Ghost nets are fishing nets that have been abandoned in the oceans. A ghost net is a fishing net that’s been lost or abandoned in the ocean.
