Lots of information gathered from many visits to #coral farms and #restoration projects showcasing how the mandated 10% of coral required for restocking on #artificialreefs can work. The sculptures are breathtaking in their own right! @CefasGovUK @TERANGI_ @IslaMacMillan

@fakhrurr_ozi @YayasanLINI @TERANGI_ @CefasGovUK @Haydenclose Yesss 😢 would have been great to meet you, maybe there will be a next time and we will meet you then… 🤞😁

@hannahlilystowe Thank you Hannah!!!

Have you ever wondered how you can introduce children to the subject of overfishing and fisheries management in a fun and fascinating way? Why don't you turn fish into... sweets?🍬 How? Check out the hands-on #lesson idea we came up with @jemimadimbleby : buff.ly/36cbV6H

To the MPs who yesterday voted to remove #sustainability as the prime objective of the #FisheriesBill - take note: All stakeholders across the board had agreed had it should be the top priority after #Brexit besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pa… #fisheries

Scientists have discovered what is thought to be the first ever documented free-swimming #elasmobranch lacking skin-related structures. The well-developed Blackmouth Catshark caught in Sardinian waters was missing skin & teeth. theinertia.com/environment/re…

If you’ve ever submitted a #mermaidspurse #eggcase record to the #GreatEggcaseHunt please take 5-10mins. to complete this questionnaire as part of a student research project at @PlymUni. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

"Sharks need all the positive publicity they can get" - & this article from @helenscales featuring @Elasmo_Gal certainly helps, especially with this beautiful illustration accompanying it! theguardian.com/environment/20…

@mjattrill Thank you Martin! Will head over and have a look now :)

Supertrawlers need to be better managed and monitored, just like other fishing vessels. That's why we're calling for ​the government to roll out camera systems on all vessels ​in the forthcoming #FisheriesBill 🎣 @DefraGovUK theguardian.com/environment/20…

I’ve seen UK coral reefs smashed to smithereens by French trawlers. Supertrawlers ‘make a mockery’ of UK’s protected seas royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… theguardian.com/environment/20…

This #Angelshark was accidentally caught in Irish waters & subsequently released! This species is #CriticallyEndangered & has declined drastically over the past 50-100 years, so any sightings provide incredibly valuable information. They can be recorded to #map" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">angelsharknetwork.com/#map

SO happy to have featured in this series! @hannahlilystowe always has great stories to tell and has many more projects in the pipeline so go check her out if you’d like to keep up with amazing adventures and beautiful artworks 💙

The stunning southwest coastal path yesterday, providing some light relief from #coronavirus turmoil! #bluespaces @swcoastpath

Good news: The oceanic whitetip shark is being added to @BonnConvention App. I, giving 130 Parties a new binding obligation to protect the species. Caution: Parties' record for doing so re: other listed sharks is not great. We must #HoldThemToIt yhoo.it/3bOf6mi #CMSCOP13
