Incidental interactions Where "incidental" means "careless" and "interactions" means "maiming and killing."

Usage: "This final rule…increases the annual number of allowable

incidental interactions that occur between the fishery and loggerhead

sea turtles."

- From a December 10 National Marine Fisheries Service document explaining rule changes that increase the number of threatened sea turtles Hawaii's longline fishermen may snare as "bycatch"
