The Indo-Pacific leopard shark was hunted to near extinction for their fins. Dr. Mark Erdmann, Executive Director of ReSharkOrg, explains why that doesn’t have to be the end of their story.
ReShark is a global coalition pioneering the recovery of threatened shark and ray populations. Through their StAR Project, they’re breeding, releasing, and monitoring leopard sharks in the protected waters of Raja Ampat, giving the species a fighting chance to thrive in the wild once again.
