Hooked to death: Irresponsible fishing kills

 A 4-month-old otter pup was found dead on 6 Sep with a fishing hook lodged in her throat.

Last month, a community cat that lives on St John's Island had a narrow escape after it accidentally swallowed a fish hook. He was found and brought to the vet in time. The baby otter was not so lucky.
