Se describen las amenazas, las metas y los objetivos, no obstante este documento sirve también como una invitación a las personas interesadas para contribuir a las actividades de investigación pertinentes en las regiones señaladas.
This conservation strategy provides a summary of available information for the three species of angel shark in the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. Threats, goals and objectives are outlined, however this document acts as an invitation for interested individuals to contribute relevant research for the highlighted regions. It is the intention that this strategy serves as a catalyst for action, bringing together regional experts and resources, and increasing the community’s capacity to deliver effective conservation for these Critically Endangered species.
This report provides an overview of the conservation status of chondrichthyans (sharks, rays, and chimaeras) in the Arabian Seas Region (ASR) and describes the results of a regional Red List workshop held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, in February 2017. It identifies those species that are threatened with extinction at the regional level, so that appropriate conservation action can be taken to improve their status. A regional overview of chondrichthyan fisheries, management and conservation is also presented.
Singapore is known to play a major role in the global trade and consumption in shark and ray parts, though a country-specific analysis has not been conducted recently. Based on this, TRAFFIC and WWF undertook an exercise to understand the scale of this trade involving Singapore, and the role it plays. This assessment describes the characteristics of shark product trade through Singapore over a ten-year period, from 2005 to 2014 as well as the current regulatory systems in place.
This report presents the findings of a review of traceability systems that have been developed in the CITES context for the trade in processed product types of Appendix II-listed species. The report considers the experiences, lessons learned and best practices from these case studies for ensuring the traceability of products of shark species listed in CITES Appendix II, and analyses the potential for establishing an effective traceability system – along the lines of those already developed in the CITES context – for shark commodities.
