Pacific Conversation : Our Pacific, Our Sharks, Our Responsibility.

Description:
Over 100 million sharks are caught annually, mainly for their fins which are highly valued in Asian markets. As predators at the top of the food chain, sharks are important in Pacific island ecosystems and also in the cultures and traditions of the Pacific people. They are depicted in our stories, legends, songs and artefacts
