## Resource

Tuvalu police, aided by Sea Shepherd, just pulled off a major win—seizing a Chinese fishing vessel, the Lu Rong Yuan Yu 138, for illegally fishing in their waters. The boat was sneaking around with lights off and fake GPS signals to hide its location, a tactic experts say is becoming standard for illegal fleets trying to vanish into the ocean’s vastness. Its false coordinates placed it right on the equator—raising alarms. For Tuvalu, a tiny island nation with huge ocean territory and limited resources, this kind of theft hits hard, robbing locals of their livelihoods.
