Sharks, an important part of the Marine ecosystem, are often misunderstood as ferocious predators. In reality, however, they play a vital role in maintaining Marine biodiversity. By preying on weak and sick fish, sharks help maintain the balance of the Marine ecosystem and ensure the survival of healthy schools of fish.
Worldwide, shark populations are in steep decline due to overfishing, habitat destruction and climate change. Many species of sharks are listed as endangered, and millions are killed each year for food such as shark fin soup, causing irreversible ecological damage. Therefore, the protection of sharks and their habitats has become an important issue in global Marine conservation.
Public misconceptions about sharks often stem from the demonization of them in films and television. Education and the dissemination of scientific knowledge are key to changing this perception. By understanding the habits of sharks and their role in the ecology, we can value these magnificent creatures even more. Let us work together to protect the guardians of the ocean and contribute to the future ecological balance of the ocean.
