Resumo(s)

An exhaustive review of anecdotal references related to dolphin-fishery information in the Greek seas during the early phase of fishery development (1900-1975) was conducted. In that period fishers perceived dolphins as competitors and would intentionally kill them in retaliation for the loss that the dolphins caused by obstructing fishing operations and damaging fishing gear. This review highlights that dolphin-fishery interaction has been a major cause of concern to Greek fishers since the early 20th century, escalating with the way of life of modern society.
