Adopt a Shark

Sharks are vital to our oceans. While popular culture has given them a frightening reputation, in reality sharks are key to the survival of healthy marine ecosystems. There are more than 500 species of sharks, and they are in every ocean habitat across the globe. Sadly, their numbers are decreasing. Around 100 million sharks are killed by humans each year. Sharks are fished for commercial purposes and their parts, especially their fins, are illegally traded.
