I can only speculate but I wouldn't imagine global warming would have had much of an impact on global shark populations to date. Water takes a lot of energy to heat up and changes to global oceanic temperatures are less noticable than atmospheric temperatures. Sharks are cold-blooded so changes in the oceans' temperatures could potentially affect their metabolisms but I would suspect sharks would simply migrate to a more suitable area if one location became unfavourable. Most of the effects of global warming on oceanic ecosystems is through increased concentrations of CO2 in the water which can reduce the ability of invertebrate, such as corals and shellfish, to produce shells made from calcium carbonate. The main threat to shark populations is overharvesting by humans. I heard a statistic a few years ago (so don't know how correct it still is) that shark populations in the Mediterranean were ~3% of their historical size due to overfishing. I'm confident any impact of global warming is fairly irrelevant to the killing of sharks for foods such as shark fin soup.
Sharks are considered endangered due to overfishing, habitat destruction, and climate change impacting their populations. These factors have led to a decline in shark numbers, disrupting marine ecosystems and increasing their risk of extinction. Conservation efforts are being made to protect and restore shark populations.
A shark biologist is a scientist who studies the biology, behavior, ecology, and conservation of sharks. They may conduct research on shark populations, habitats, and interactions with other species to better understand and protect these marine animals. Shark biologists often work to promote shark conservation and educate the public about the importance of these apex predators in marine ecosystems.
Human impacts on Shark Bay include pollution from agricultural runoff, habitat destruction from coastal development, and overfishing leading to declines in shark populations. These impacts can disrupt the ecosystem balance and threaten the biodiversity of the area. Efforts are being made to mitigate these impacts through conservation measures and sustainable management practices.
Yes it should be! It is animal cruelty! Did you know that they catch sharks, cut off their fins while they are still alive and throw them back in the water to die? I don't know about you but this sounds like cruelty to me! Millions of sharks die each year because of this delacacy..
Wolf sharks are just phonies. There's no such thing as wolf shark.
There is no direct link between global warming and shark attacks. On average, worldwide shark attacks result in about 10 fatalities each year, with fluctuations due to various factors such as human behavior and shark populations. Global warming may impact the distribution and behavior of sharks, but it is not a direct cause of shark attacks on humans.
Fishing
I THINK THE THREATS ARE NETS AND FISH HOOKS AND PEOPLE KILLING THEM
Shark populations have declined significantly over time due to overfishing, habitat destruction, and climate change. Many shark species are now threatened or endangered, with some populations decreasing by as much as 90%. Conservation efforts are being made to protect sharks and their habitats to help stabilize their populations.
dolphins have gone through lots of hard things like shark atacks, scratches on sharp coral and of coarse sometimes being hunted by people. Global Warming is also efecting the dolphins.
Preserve their habitats.To do this we have to:stop widespread and illegal loggingstop global warming and climate change by changing completely to renewable energy.stop trading in elephant tusks, rhino horns, shark fins, whales, etc.
the sharks are decreasing
Humans! people eat shark fin soup and use shark products for medicines. Also many sharks are killed because of people fearing them.
Some sharks do like the mako shark and basking shark but not sharks like the hammer head and great white and all the reef sharks however they think that many sharks like the great white as the ice caps are melting are migrating to Britain as the water is getting warmer from global warming.
Yes they keep the populations of other sea creatures in balance. Whithout them the eco would be all wrong.
The octopus and shark populations will decline.
