Summary:	"[S]ea turtle handling protocols, prepared by NOAA Fisheries Southeast Fisheries Science Center, describe the tools and techniques for removing fishing gear from incidentally captured sea turtles and other bycatch species. ... The required and recommended equipment and techniques described here are intended to reduce sea turtle injury and promote post-release survival. ... Although these guidelines were written for sea turtle release, this equipment should also be used for all bycatch species to reduce mortality"--Introd.
