Life through the eyes of a female squaretail grouper in the waters of the tiny island of Bitra.
In 2012, the largest spawning aggregation of squaretail groupers was discovered in the waters of the tiny island of Bitra, in the Lakshadweep archipelago, India. This opened up an important dialogue about marine conservation in India.
Local fishermen and the local governing council decided to protect the groupers by means of a temporal fishing closure in 2014, and the aggregation came to be known as the first floating reserve of India. In the last five years however, due to a decline in the catch of tuna, the fish that islanders targeted for household consumption and sale, the demand for reef fish (especially groupers) has risen. This has resulted in the status of the floating reserve being revoked.
This is a story about the aggregation through the eyes and voice of a female squaretail grouper.
