SUMMARY
Although pelagic sharks are caught in a variety of fishing gears in the Atlantic Ocean, pelagic longline fisheries targeting tunas and swordfish account for the majority of their catch. With the widest geographic range among all large sharks, Prionace glauca is the most abundant elasmobranch caught...
