QUESTION 8 Read the following case study and answer the questions that follow. Kosi Bay fish kraals Kosi Bay in northern KwaZulu-Natal is an example of a place where education and community involvement ensure that fishing remains sustainable. Local Thonga fishermen have been using a system of fish kraals for generations to catch fish sustainably. Population growth has placed greater demands on fish piles and has led to the use of other types of nets that are not sustainable. Conservation organizations and tourism operators intervened and instituted community-based educational programs. These programs have taught the local people that it is necessary to sustainably catch all fish. It also explained the benefits of tourism if the traditional fishing methods are continued. Today, fishing with fish kraals is again practiced sustainably and additional income from tourism, which is associated with this unique type of fishing, is earned.
