A cat is pictured near unused fishing boats at Caleta Infiernillo, a small fishing

A cat is pictured near unused fishing boats at " Caleta Infiernillo", a small fishing bay near Concepcion city, some 500 km (311 miles) south of Santiago, April 25, 2013. A rapidly declining stock of sardines and anchovies for the first time in 30 years due to overfishing and climate change has threatened livelihoods in the local artisanal fishing industry, affecting more than 6, 000 people. Authorities are seeking ways to help fishing unions in the Bio Bio region tide over their losses this year, which have amounted to about $12 billion pesos ($25.5 million), according to local media.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print captured by Jose Luis Saavedra, a cat is seen perched near unused fishing boats at Caleta Infiernillo, a small fishing bay near Concepcion city in Chile. The image tells a story of the devastating impact that overfishing and climate change have had on the local artisanal fishing industry. For the first time in three decades, the stock of sardines and anchovies has rapidly declined, posing a grave threat to the livelihoods of more than 6,000 people who depend on fishing for their sustenance. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of the delicate balance between human activity and nature's resources. The authorities are grappling with finding solutions to support fishing unions in the Bio Bio region as they struggle to recover from losses amounting to approximately $25.5 million. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how interconnected our actions are with environmental sustainability and economic well-being. Amidst these abandoned vessels and uncertain times, it is impossible not to feel empathy for both humans and animals affected by these challenges. The presence of the cat symbolizes resilience amidst adversity; it stands as an unwavering witness to an industry threatened by forces beyond its control. Through this evocative image, Saavedra prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving fragile ecosystems while ensuring sustainable livelihoods for communities dependent on them.
