Worldwide there are over 500 species of shark, 600 skates and rays, and 50 chimaera. All unique and amazing in their own ways! A world without sharks will have serious consequences for marine and freshwater ecosystems. As well as the many human communities and economies that depends on them. Sharks, skates, rays and chimaera, are among the world’s most threatened animals. Shark conservation is a global problem and needs global solutions. Sustainable use of the resources provided by the sea requires a transformation in the way we manage them. Nowhere is this more apparent than in fisheries. The Shark Trust is at the cutting edge of change that will shape the future of the ocean. So share some love for them Sharks!!!!!
