Introduction

Marine debris, particularly plastic waste, has become a major global environmental issue, with detrimental effects on marine ecosystems and wildlife. Marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, and seals, are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of marine debris, as they can become entangled in discarded fishing gear and other debris, or mistakenly ingest plastic items, leading to injury or death. This thesis aims to assess the impact of marine debris on the entanglement and ingestion rates of marine mammals, with a focus on understanding the scope of the problem and identifying potential strategies for mitigation.

Thesis Overview:

The impact of marine debris on marine mammals is a growing concern in global marine conservation efforts. This thesis focuses on assessing the entanglement and ingestion rates of marine mammals due to marine debris pollution, with the aim of understanding the scope of the problem, identifying key factors influencing entanglement and ingestion, and evaluating current mitigation efforts. The thesis consists of five chapters, starting with an introduction to the issue, followed by a comprehensive literature review, a detailed explanation of the research methodology, a discussion of the findings, and a conclusion with recommendations for future research and action. Through this research, we hope to contribute to the understanding of the impact of marine debris on marine mammals and inform conservation strategies to protect these vulnerable species.
