Abstract
⺠We report a study on overfishing and its indirect impact on common dolphins and on marine biodiversity. ⺠Local fisheries have negatively impacted the ecosystem causing sharp declines of common dolphins and major fish stocks. ⺠Common dolphins would gradually recover only if the study area was to be closed to all fisheries.
