Bycatch is the heartbreaking catch of everything but shrimp—baby fish, turtles, even dolphins. In Odisha, for every kilogram of shrimp, *five* kilograms of life are thrown back, dead. The rest? It rots on the banks, a waste that chokes our mangroves and our fishing communities. I say this holding the carcass of an olive ridley turtle from last week's trawl, its shell cracked open like the story we keep pretending not to see.
