Thousands of protected marine animals including grey seals, dolphins, angel sharks and flapper skates are drowning in tangle nets set for crayfish off Ireland’s west coast…

New figures from Ireland’s Marine Institute show the deaths are happening inside Special Areas of Conservation, raising serious questions about why the State has not acted on risks identified years ago.

Joining Seán to discuss this is Pádraic Fogarty, Environmental Campaigner.
