The scientific models that ecologists and conservation biologists rely on to determine which species and habitats to protect lack critical information to help them make effective decisions, accordi

The world's fisheries will be, on average, 20 per cent less productive in the year 2300, according to a study.

KOCHI: There is growing, substantial evidence that climate change has affected fish and other marine population over the decades.

ONE evening in Tombo, as fish buyers throng the seafront, an argument erupts at the far end of the harbour.

WALVIS BAY – A Norwegian scientist on Saturday reaffirmed the depletion of the pilchard fish species in Namibian waters after conducting a survey along the country's coastline.

KOLKATA: From Tollygunge to Kidderpore and Gariahat to Amherst Street, every time you buy vegetables, fish, chicken or grocery from roadside markets, you are taking home dollops of heavy metal pois

Anthropogenic climate warming could lead to water temperatures in some parts of the world exceeding the thermal survival limits of the fish species living there now, according to new research from

The mucky sediment below fish farms usually teems with antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Tool use has allowed humans to become one of the most successful species. However, tool-assisted foraging has also pushed many of our prey species to extinction or endangerment, a technology-driven process thought to be uniquely human. Here, we demonstrate that tool-assisted foraging on shellfish by long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park, Thailand, reduces prey size and prey abundance, with more pronounced effects where the macaque population size is larger.

Between now and 2050 the planet’s population is expected to rise by a third, from 7.6bn to 9.8bn. Those extra mouths will need feeding, and not just with staples.
