Shark depredation and behavioural interactions with fishing gear in a recreational fishery in Western Australia

This work was carried out under animal ethics approval from The University of Western Australia (approval number F 18979). We thank Terry Maxwell and Robert Perrett, the skippers of 'Osso Blue' and 'Blue Horizon', respectively, for their assistance with collection of video footage, and for providing detailed information on shark interactions with fishing vessels. Thanks also to the deckhands of these vessels and to all of the recreational fishers who assisted with collection of video footage. We also thank Rory McAuley from the Western Australia Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, for shark identification. Todd Bond and Michael Taylor from The University of Western Australia and Glenn Moore from the Western Australia Museum assisted with teleost fish identification. Two anonymous reviewers helped improve the manuscript. The research was financially supported by the Jock Clough Marine Foundation and the Western Australia Government's Recreational Fishing Initiatives Fund (project number 2016/08), which was administered by the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development and Recfishwest. J. D. M. was funded by the Australian Federal Government and The University of Western Australia, through an Australian Postgraduate Award and an International Research Training Program (RTP) Stipend Scholarship, respectively.
