Muro-Ami Fishing• Muro-Ami Fishing, otherwise known as reef-
hunting, is one of the cruelest, most cataclysmic forms of illegal fishing that destroys the coral reefs and exploits children.
• Children as young as seven years old dive to the bottom of the ocean without oxygen mask. There they spread the nets and pound on the coral reefs to drive the fish towards the nets.
