Here you can find the latest issue of the EU Shark Rally Newsletter. We’re pleased to announce the first EU Member State to back the ICCAT scientific advise to prohibit the retention of makos in the North Atlantic and become our first EU Mako Champion…check out the newsletter to find out who it is! And…we’ve just released the Voices for Makos video showcasing EU citizens, politicians, scientists, divers, aquariums voice their support for the science as well.
Yet, the EU continues to promote retention of mako, in spite of the scientific advice for a prohibition of retention, no exceptions. So we need your voice now more than ever! As the ICCAT intersessional meeting approaches, please join the #Rally4Makos and urge the EU Commission to change their position.
