Over the past 4 decades there has been a growing concern for the conservation status of
elasmobranchs (sharks and rays). In 2002, the first elasmobranch species were added to …

The process of understanding the rapid global decline of sawfishes (Pristidae) has revealed
great concern for their relatives, the wedgefishes (Rhinidae) and giant guitarfishes …

The extinction risk of sharks, rays and chimaeras is higher than that for most other
vertebrates due to low intrinsic population growth rates of many species and the fishing …

Sharks and rays are at risk of extinction globally. This reflects low resilience to increasing
fishing pressure, exacerbated by habitat loss, climate change, increasing value in a trade …
