16 Crew Missing from Taiwanese Longliner Capsized During Cyclone Freddy   On Sunday, February 19th, a 98-ton Taiwanese-flagged longliner named Lien Sheng Fa lost radio contact with Taipei while cruising in international waters in the Indian Ocean, 215 nautical miles from Rodrigues Island – a dependency of Mauritius Island. At the time, intense tropical cyclone Freddy was approaching, with gusts estimated at 280 km/h near its eye. The Lien Sheng Fa was carrying 16 crew members, including a Taiwanese captain and 15 Indonesians, on a fishing campaign in the north of the Indian Ocean. Late in the evening of Thursday, February 23rd, Taiwanese authorities contacted the National Coast Guard (NCG) in Mauritius requesting a search and rescue operation for the missing vessel. The NCG sent the CGS Barracuda, an offshore patrol boat, and the Dornier, an aircraft, to search for any survivors. Calls were also made to vessels in

what was the leash training thing❔

Omg so a houseline isn't leash training Per Se, but the basic idea is that you keep a line on your pup at ALL times, for the early part of their training. For Hugo (and most dogs) that'd be a leash that you cut the handle off of, so it can't get caught on anything. For smaller breed dogs, I've seen people use very lightweight stuff, like macrame rope lol. It might sound like it's a strict thing, but dogs don't really give that much of a shit abt it, and you can correct behavior much much more easily. Puppy careens toward a pill dropped on the ground, you don't have to actually catch them, you can stomp on the line! You need them to come to you, you don't have to play a game of chase, you just reel them in. Someone opens the front door unexpectedly- stomp on the line. Puppy is jumping up on people, you can use the line to encourage them to stay on all four feet. Etc etc etc. Training tool, safety tool, convenience tool. I definitely think it saved me and Hugo from a lot of moments that could've been a lot worse. Another thing about the houseline is that it keeps you from fucking up the process of getting the dog used to being handled and touched. Without the line, there are a lot of situations where you need to GRAB the puppy all of a sudden, and maybe it's scary. A lot of dogs are Hand Weary. So there's no negative association attached to your touch, and you don't run into a situation where the puppy is reactive to being Reached towards. The leash that's always been attached to me forever and ever and is sometimes directed by, idk, god? Not scary. Big hands reaching towards me very suddenly? Scary! Anddd that's why Hugo has a raggedy leash on in every puppy photo!

5 years ago- Sharks and Rays class pt. 2 (‼️No sharks were harmed!! They were brought on board the research boat, measured, tagged, and released‼️)

Tiger sharks are my favorite species of shark with Great Hammerheads (also pictured) coming in second. Why? It's because of this experience right here. One of the outings we did during the class, took us out to the gorgeous water of the Gulf.

Until this day, I didn't realize there was an 'efficient' way to bait and catch sharks (we may have been doing it for research, but it doesn't escape my attention that sport fishers probably use this method too 😓😭). This method is termed: Bottom Longline Fishing. I can't begin to explain the process, as there's many different forms of it (Google could explain better lol).

For what we were doing, it's a pretty cool practice, one that allowed myself and fellow students to see wild sharks up close. Obviously, what caught my attention most were the juvenile Tiger sharks (an easy tell is how vivid their 'stripes' are) we were pulling up! Their skin against the backdrop of the teal water was stunning! I fell in love with their beauty instantly, so they will always have a special place in my heart🩶🦈🖤.

As far as the great hammerhead though, you see on tv when biologists and researchers call out measurements like 'Oh! We've got a 15 footer!' If you've ever watched Shark Week, that is common. Clearly 15ft is large, but until you see it with your own eyes, you can't fully comprehend just HOW large that is! Granted.. the one pictured was a female who only measured in at 8ft 😅 almsot half the size of a full grown hammerhead. It didn't take a lot of imagination to grasp how large she could have been, had she been mature. Humbling is the word I'd like to use to describe that experience. Even at 8ft, she was powerful and was almost too big to fit on the large scale at the back of the boat. True beauties of the ocean🦈🩶
