A Smooth Hound Shark caught by a surf fisherman lies abandoned on the beach after being stabbed to death. Wanton wastage and overexploitation of our marine resources has put over 80% of the globes fisheries in a state of collapse.

We have to change our current patterns of abuse of the oceans. Adherence to fishing regulations are paramount and we need to support the global call to proclaim at least 10% of the oceans as marine protected areas. Be part of the positive change to ensuring ocean recovery and protection!
