Description
My scientific poster outlines the main conservation issues facing the Planet’s largest Ray species, the Oceanic Manta Ray (Mobula birstrosis) as an under pinning to the production of a conservation strategy to protect this species. By catch and Manta Ray fisheries are the predominant issues and this poster outlines a three faceted approach of research, eco-tourism and fishery regulations as important aspects of the strategy which need to be undertaken through international cooperation.
The poster outlines these major issues and points of action needed to tackle the issues and provides insight into necessary future conservation work that must be done.
