Their colour isn’t just beautiful, it helps them blend into their open-ocean surroundings as they move through different depths. #BlueShark #Sharks #Sharkwater #SaveSharks #SharkFacts #RobStewart

Meet the Port Jackson shark, one of Australia’s most distinctive sharks. Found along Australia’s southern coast, they spend much of their time around rocky reefs and kelp beds, where their muted colouring helps them blend into their surroundings. Footage: @liamswebb

The decision undermines global efforts to protect vulnerable shark populations already devastated by overfishing and the shark fin trade. Read the full investigation from Mongabay Latam. es.mongabay.com/2026/10/peru…

Did you know? Basking sharks are the second-largest fish in the world, after whale sharks! Similar to whale sharks, basking sharks are filter feeders, swimming with their enormous mouths open to collect tiny plankton from the water. #WorldBaskingSharkDay

Sharks can detect the electrical activity produced by a heartbeat, even through the surrounding water. Another reminder that sharks experience their underwater world in ways we can barely imagine.

Imagine an ocean without sharks. If we lose them, we don't just lose sharks. We lose something irreplaceable. These powerful, mysterious animals are part of what makes the ocean what it is and their absence would be impossible to replace.

Hidden among frozen sardines, Brazilian authorities uncovered shark fins from an estimated 5,700 sharks, including endangered species. The company faces R$50 million in fines, exposing the scale of the global shark fin trade and the urgent need for stronger protections.

A conservation success story worth celebrating. Isla Mujeres is showing what’s possible when shark conservation becomes a shared effort. The work happening here is making a measurable difference for sharks and the people dedicated to protecting them.

Through powerful First Nations storytelling, Ganibarra challenges the way we see Australia's dingoes, highlighting their deep cultural significance and the importance of protecting wildlife and living in harmony with nature. #RobStewart #RobStewartLegacy #Ganibarra

With millions of sharks swimming through our oceans, there’s a pretty good chance that one of them shares your special day. So next time your birthday rolls around, just remember, somewhere beneath the waves, your shark twin might be celebrating too.

Researchers at the University of Miami and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are turning their natural movements into research opportunities, helping us learn more about the changing conditions beneath the surface and better understand the ocean we all depend on.

RP by @oceangirllex Sharks are one of the most misunderstood animals on the planet. They’re incredibly important to healthy oceans, and in many cases, far more afraid of us than we are of them.

A LAWNMOWER IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN A SHARK Sharks kill around six people per year. Humans kill sharks and rays by the thousands every day. Maybe it’s time to ask who should really be afraid of whom. RP @coralreefcare

Around the world, it is sold under generic names and, in some cases, mislabeled as more valuable fish species. This makes it difficult for consumers to know exactly what they're buying…and can allow threatened species to enter the seafood supply chain unnoticed.

What @galaxydiver_ said.

Sharks use their senses to investigate unfamiliar objects in the water, and circling can be part of that exploratory behaviour. They may approach, change direction and circle an object as they gather information about what it is. #Sharkwater #SaveSharks #SharkFacts #RobStewart
