It’s not usually a problem for most aquaculture operations, but shark attacks make Caribbean fish farming a challenge.
The Cape Eleuthera Institute needed protection for its cobia operations in the Bahamas, and the result was a unique system from Dyneema and Net Systems that – based on the graphic video the company showed – can fend off a nasty attack.
