Sharks: Diversity, Threats, and Conservation Efforts

This video discusses the diversity and historical significance of sharks, highlighting their existence even before dinosaurs. It also addresses the threats faced by certain shark species, particularly in the Coral Sea off Australia's coast, due to illegal fishing driven by the demand for shark fin soup. The World Wildlife Fund is advocating for the establishment of a Coral Sea reserve to protect these vulnerable sharks and preserve the unique marine wilderness of the area.
