Coral sea biodiversity review: sharks and fish

Source: WWF Australia
"A new report commissioned by WWF-Australia has found that shark and other marine species populations in Australia's Coral Sea are particularly vulnerable to fishing and other threats. The research finds that sharks that live around reefs in the Coral Sea do not travel far, preferring to "stay at home" on their reefs. This makes these populations especially vulnerable to threats and adds more weight to WWF's calls for protection of the Coral Sea."
