Underwater, where sunlight fades, a silhouette can just about be singled out, but its presence felt: the Shark. 🦈
These majestic creatures have shaped our oceans for millions of years, maintaining the balance of the blue life, preserving the health of reefs, seamounts, mangroves, shores, and ensuring the stability of these fragile ecosystems. 🦈
For over two decades, we have been at the forefront of shark research and conservation in the Galapagos Islands. Working together with the Galapagos National Park, and local and international partners and donors through our Shark Ecology Project, our objective is to conduct applied research that informs the long-term conservation of this threatened group of species, in Galapagos and beyond. 🦈
Join us this #SharkAwarenessDay and upcoming #SharkWeek by taking action with us and changing mindsets. With one out of every three shark species facing the risk of extinction, we must protect our seas urgently. Protect sharks, as one of its most majestic and emblematic guardians. 🦈
Make an impact by donating on the link in our bio. Alternatively, share this post with your friends and family to raise awareness of the importance of protecting sharks in Galapagos and around the world. We need your help.
Protect Galapagos. Impact the World! 🦈🌎
