The Turtle Excluder Device, which was first tested out in US waters and then extended to the Wider Caribbean/Western Atlantic Region, is now used in as many as 43 countries. As a result, wild caught shrimp does no longer threatens the survival of sea turtles or other endangered marine species. The prototype of TED which originated in the 1960s was then known as Trawling Efficiency Device, whose sole function was to prevent/reduce the unwanted by-catch and thereby ensure a trouble-free and more profitable shrimp fishing.
