"Bodo" is a tribal community in North East Indian state Assam. This photograph is been taken in Chirang while this Bodo lady was fishing with their traditional fishing equipment "Jaakoi".
Humans have used cormorants' fishing skills, in China, Japan, and Macedonia, where they have been trained by fishermen. A snare is tied near the base of the bird's throat, which allows the bird only to swallow small fish. When the bird captures and tries to swallow a large fish, the fish is caught in the bird's throat. When the bird returns to the fisherman's raft, the fisherman helps the bird to remove the fish from its throat.

This week: Cormoran fisherman and his bird, Li River, Yangshuo, China
I thought I’ll take a break from HDR photos today and go back to a travel photograph taken last summer while I was on the Li River in Guilin, China. The Li River is home to one of the most unusual styles of fishing in the world. The local fishermen catch cormorans and train them to fish on the river while their long necks are tied with a piece of string. This way the birds can’t swallow the fish and after catching a few they are picked up from the water and made to spit out the fish onto the boat. This kind of fishing only goes on at night and is not very easy to photograph. The man in the photograph was kind enough to stop for a while and let me take some pictures of him and his bird.

TASIILAQ (Greenland / Groenlandia). Capelines, los peces de la imagen, muy abundantes en el fiordo de Ammassalik colgados en una casa para que se sequen.
Since 2003, the gigant humbodlt squid got to the cold waters of the central part of Chile. It came with a strong hot current, but in time the squid stayed and prospered. Eventualy devouring most othe fish left from industrial fishing , the traditional fishermen saw in this the last nail in their business coffin.
In time, they developed a method to capture this creature and now is the most important product.
The traditional fishing in Chile is a dangeous business. A lot of fishermen have died in recent years ( some of them eaten by the squids, the fishermen say ). Their light vessels are made of fiber glass and in case of an acident they depend on the rapid response of the navy and their friends in order to survive.
