One of humanity's worst impacts on marine life is the so-called “incidental capture” of marine animals through fishing nets. An immense number of marine animals are caught during fishing activities with a net, and are discarded dead because they have no commercial value (or because they are protected by law and their capture is supposedly prohibited). Among these animals are species that are already vulnerable and threatened with extinction, such as sharks, birds, sea turtles and whales and dolphins, among others. It is estimated that globally more than 650,000 marine mammals die each year from fishing nets.

In addition to the active fishing nets, many of the animals dies victim of so - called "ghost nets", which are entire networks or lost pieces or purposely abandoned by fishermen, and by being very light material below the floating half water, killing everything that comes in contact with them. In Brazil, there are frequent cases of whales and dolphins injured or killed by entanglement in fishing nets.
