Fascinating talk by @SeanAWilliamson about improving recreational #fishing for #sharks & #rays in Australia. Lots of relevance to what we are doing with @SharkHubUK #SharkMates 🦈

Concerning study highlights we may have lost a sub-population of tiger sharks before ever really knowing it really existed. Even worse given tiger sharks are generally more tolerant to fisheries/culls than other species (faster growing, more offspring).

Part of our research at @tcddublin explores how 🦈 respond to angling so we can improve their welfare outcomes. Our bait cam yesterday off Cork showed this stunning blue shark was more interested in the 🎥 than the food! With @luce_harding @haleydolton @SharkyJenny @yodacomplex
