The SEAFICS project addresses conflicts between seals and the fishing industry by assessing seal depredation and developing mitigation strategies.

Fishers suffer economic losses due to loss of catch, gear damage and time spent disentangling damaged fish/by-caught seals, while ecological impacts can include seal mortality (by-catch and/or authorised/illegal killing), alongside changes in animal behaviour (e.g. seals may become reliant on artificial food sources).
