Sir David Attenborough And Round-The-World Yachtsmen Support Global Campaign To Save The Albatross
World-renowned broadcaster and naturalist, Sir David Attenborough, and the organisers of the world’s premier ocean sailing challenge – The Volvo Ocean Race - are announcing their support for BirdLife International’s Save the Albatross campaign.

The RSPB, the UK partner of BirdLife International, is launching a website
www.savethealbatross.net
as part of the campaign to raise funds in support of Operation Ocean Task Force.
This exciting new initiative will place trained people on longline fishing vessels to show the crews simple and practical techniques to prevent seabird deaths. Around 100,000 albatrosses a year – approximately one every five minutes – drown when taking bait from hooks suspended on longlines up to 130km long. As a result, 19 of the world’s 21 species of albatross are now threatened with global extinction.
