Study finds marine protected areas (#MPAs) alone are not enough to protect reef sharks. Effective conservation requires a combination of MPAs & robust fisheries management practices. Protecting habitats & limiting fishing can boost shark populations 🦈🐠

A study has found that many of Europe's #MPAs lack strict protection measures and are still vulnerable to harmful activities like mining and bottom trawling. #ProtectedAreas are crucial to reach the 2030 target of protecting 30% of its seas. 🌊

🇺🇸 A study by Hawaii-based researchers shows that #MPAs can lead to more trophy-sized fish outside the MPA boundaries after 12-30 years. This finding supports the creation of MPAs as envisioned in the global "30x30" conservation initiative.🐟🐡🐠

The mysterious deep-sea prickly shark has a wider range than previously thought, with a recent discovery in Panama

While more research is needed to understand this Data Deficient species, #MPAs like Cordillera de Coiba are crucial for its conservation🦈

RT @theGEF: 🪸 #GEFcouncil67 approved over $13M in funding for a “coral bond.”

As the world’s first outcome-based bond for #MPAs, it is set to generate resources for #biodiversity in 4️⃣ marine protected areas in Indonesia.

Good news for sharks! A new study reveals total fishing bans in marine protected areas (#MPAs) are most effective for saving reef sharks. Researchers compared 66 MPAs with different fishing rules & found twice as many reef sharks in fully protected zones! https://t.co/yypYGUQp3W
