The reading passage and lecture have conflicting opinions about whether it is a good idea to use ted method which helps extinct turtles to escape from shrimp nets.The article strongly postulates that this method has a lot of drawbacks, so it is not an effective way to help them. On the other hand, the listening adamantly delineates that none of the author's criticisms is convincing.
To begin with, according to the professor in the lecture, even though there is a little chance to trap in these nets, it does not mean that ted is useless. To be more specific, if the 5000 boats throw their nests in the underwater, there is a high chance for 5000 turtles to trap in these nets within one month. Therefore, for the small number of turtles population, this is a huge danger of extinction. Nonetheless, the article offsets these points by declaring that trapped turtles are found in only certain situations and their chances are very low. Furthermore, every time a small number of shrimps will escape through these passages, so it will really costly for every fisher whose lives depend on this business.
On top of this, the lecturer further asserts that time-limiting method can work only in theory because it is almost impossible to enforce them. Moreover, it will be hard for the government to check every fishers' nets, thus ted is more manageable to implement them. These claims refute the writer's implications about there is also another way to save these turtles:time-limiting. If the fishers check every time their nets whether or not the turtles trap due to shortened time, it will allow some trapped turtles to be saved or breathe.
Lastly, the speaker in the lecture suggests that ted is easier to modify its design, so there is no harm for some large species to trap in the shrimp nets. Nevertheless, the author counters these indications by insisting that this device will not work for some big animals such as leatherback and loggerhead because its standard will not give them a chance to escape from it.
