Why is shark protection or marine conservation important to you?

Sharks are unrecognized animals without a lobby. We give them a voice and fight for their protection. Without them, we humans would not survive either. They contribute significantly to the balance in the marine ecosystem. It concerns ALL people!

 

Do you have any special skills, experiences or adventures?
