DiveCareDare recently came across this fabulous website:  www.supportoursharks.com

It is a fabulous web site with some great information and news relating to conservation, education and research of the ocean.

Shark biologist Dr. Ryan Kempster founded the Support Our Sharks (SOS) Ocean Conservation Society in 2010 with a mission to support healthy oceans by promoting better protection for sharks and their close relatives the rays and skates.

SOS is a science-based conservation group raising awareness to the threats faced by sharks (and rays) in the 21st century.  Dr. Kempster established SOS with the goal of educating the public by promoting conservation, outreach and research to inspire interest in protecting these important animals.

They utilise a mixture of on-the-ground and online campaigning, educational outreach and peer-reviewed scientific research to encourage better protection for sharks and rays, whilst also promoting better protection of our delicately-balanced ocean ecosystems. By working closely with the general public and a wide range of specialist groups including scientists, divers and politicians, they are able to bring about positive change for sharks and their relatives worldwide.

This great short but punchy video discusses how long sharks have existed. It’s a must watch!
