What we do
Humane Society International and the Australian Marine Conservation Society are joining forces to help protect sharks and rays in Australia. Sharks are vital to healthy ocean ecosystems, but sadly in Australia and around the world they are under threat from over fishing, culling programs and habitat loss. Together we are working on achieving better outcomes for sharks and rays in our oceans, but we’ll need you to join us by becoming a Shark Champion.
