There's less than thirty of these in the wild so seeing one end up as bycatch is a sobering reminder of the consequences of overfishing.

And you can't even safely eat them; they're full of heavy metals like uranium.
Chock full of Alpha 3 fatty asses.
It sounds like it was on the surface, if it was being escorted by a coast guard vessel.
