[5/6] 🦈Grey reef shark population - once one of the most common reef sharks in the Indo-Pacific - has declined by up to 60%❗️Threatened by #overfishing🎣🚢 and loss of coral reefs🪸 due to climate change🔥, it's likely been lost from individual reefs, if not whole countries...

[4/6] The iconic largetooth sawfish🪚🐟 is disappearing from many parts of our blue planet, including East Africa🌍. Overfished in quite a few locations, it's possibly extinct in 🇸🇨the Seychelles and 🇿🇦South Africa, where St. Lucia estuary was once an important breeding ground!

Oceanic sharks and rays are vital to a healthy #ocean and – in turn – the well-being of people, too. But we're losing them. Since the 1970s, oceanic shark & ray populations have plummeted by 71%. 👉 We need to take action #ForALivingPlanet panda.org/lpr #LPR2022

Scientists have documented an unprecedented phenomenon: #stingrays can produce sounds voluntarily, possibly as a warning response to perceived threats, but it’s unclear how, as they don’t have anything resembling vocal cords. bit.ly/3CtmUcu #SharkConservation
