Why Do We Need Shark Guardian?
Sharks are incredibly important and keep the delicate balance of the ocean's ecosystem in check. They are the ocean's big cats, and their presence at the top of the food chain ensures that all species below it live in harmony, which is directly related to the ocean's health.A 2013 study found that up to 100 million sharks are estimated to be killed by humans each year. This is due in part to the shark fin trade, where sharks are hunted solely for their fins, often to make shark fin soup.
This leaves a dire stark fact in that A quarter of the world’s sharks species (130/520) are threatened with extinction according to the IUCN red list of threatened species.
