Tuesday 30 June, Mexico’s DGVS (Department of Wildlife) is convening a multi-agency and stakeholder meeting in Puerto Lopez Mateos. High ranking
representatives from all local fishing cooperatives and fedecoops plus relelvant federal and state agencies will be meeting with the express purpose
of addressing fisheries management and bycatch issues in the region of Magdalena Bay.
If you are in the region, one way you could help the problem would be to visit Lopez Mateos to see the turtle graveyard during the summer fishing
months when the by-catch (thus, turtle kill) is in greater amounts, and sharing your concern directly with local fishermen.
