Blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) show high capacity for wound healing and recovery following injury [PDF]

Conservation Physiology, 2015
Wound healing is important for sharks from the earliest life stages, for example, as the 'umbilical scar' in viviparous species heals, and throughout adulthood, when sharks can incur a range of external injuries from natural and anthropogenic sources. Despite anecdotal accounts of rapid healing in elasmobranchs, data regarding recovery and survival of ...

Environmental DNA Reveals Distinct Regions of Extraordinary Marine Biodiversity to Inform a Newly Established Marine Park—Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia, is a globally significant refuge for many marine megafauna species. The recent designation of a marine park in Exmouth Gulf underscores its environmental, social and cultural significance but remains a site of competing interests.

Examining the efficacy of a sanctuary to protect sharks in the Galapagos Marine Reserve

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract In 2016, Ecuador established a no‐take marine sanctuary in the northern portion of the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR), ostensibly to protect sharks. Arguably because of this, experimental longlining was permitted in the rest of the reserve as part of a compensation package to local fishers. Considering this agreement and very low bycatch rates

Global Patterns and Drivers of Climate Vulnerability in Sharks and Rays: A Reassessment Using the IRACC Framework

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate vulnerability in sharks and rays is unevenly distributed across habitats and ecological groups, reflecting differences in exposure pathways and biological constraints. Using an updated application of the Integrated Risk Assessment for Climate Change (IRACC) framework, we conducted a global reassessment of climate vulnerability for 95 ...

Assessing Risk for Bycatch and Byproduct Species Using a Modified Sustainability Assessment for Fishing Effects (SAFE) Approach

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 831-849, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Central to ecosystem‐based fisheries management is ensuring the sustainability of bycatch and byproduct species. However, the sustainability of these species is difficult to assess as the lack of information limits the use of traditional stock assessment methods.
