Over 100 million sharks are killed per year. That's 11,000 sharks every hour.🚨

Sharks are essential for a healthy #ocean. They keep coral reefs thriving, fish populations balanced, and marine ecosystems resilient. Yet today, nearly 40% of all shark species are threatened with extinction.

⚠️ #Sharks aren't scary, but a world without them is. Without them, the ocean, and everything it sustains, begins to unravel.

Our crew is out at sea, fighting the threats these apex predators face: illegal fishing, bycatch, shark finning, habitat destruction, pollution and plastic waste.

This #WorldSharkDay, we’re shining a light on these incredible animals – and on the critical work needed to protect them. Join the Movement and help us

🦈 Safeguarding critical shark habitats
🦈 Combating IUU-fishing and finning
🦈 Strengthening and enforcing conservation laws

Together, we can help secure a future for sharks and the ocean.

Sometimes I worry that my work doesn't have enough impact. And then we do 1 school assembly to promote #WorldSharkDay & highlight the many types of marine sci careers (no you dont HAVE to be a diver or fisher) and I feel fulfilled & hopeful about the future. Thank you Broomgrove Juniors (& my kids!)
