ZSL #014 A new era for shark conservation? Protecting 'flat sharks', rays and angels

03 Oct 2018

Description

Monni and guests explore a new era of shark conservation, focusing on protecting the lesser-known 'flat sharks' and rays, such as sawfishes, angel sharks, wedgefishes stingrays and guitar sharks. Large coastal sharks have a greater exposure to habitat degradation and fishing compared to offshore and pelagic species, increasing their risk of extinction. Find out what mermaids' purses tell us about the current distribution of these flat sharks, which include angel sharks living in the Canary Islands and around Welsh coast.
