Posted Thu Jun 19 2008: from BBC (UK):
Fulmars' dramatic decline: seabird in peril http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1213879251
 A reduction in the size of the Scottish whitefish fleet may be linked to a fall in numbers of a seabird, a conservation charity has said. The John Muir Trust said a count of fulmars at Cape Wrath found 261 pairs on cliffs that once supported 700. The birds often feed on fish discarded by fishing boats. However, a decline in the numbers of vessels, following European restrictions on catch sizes, could be contributing to a famine.
