With over 73,000,000 sharks killed every year, the plight of sharks is at a crucial point with many species on the verge of extinction. Shark Angels use innovative education and advocacy programs to inspire a global movement to save sharks and the oceans.
Our Campaigns Include:
SHARK CHERUBS: SHARK ANGELS have delivered over 4,000 hours of captivating educational presentations to children via Skype in the Classroom in 8 countries, on 3 continents!
FIN FREE: Helping protect sharks with the legislation of shark fin bans around the world.
SHARK FREE: Creating awareness of the many products that contain shark parts such as cartilage and shark liver oil. Just because you don’t eat shark fin soup, doesn’t mean you aren’t consuming shark.
SHARK DIVING: Getting people into the water with sharks – and helping them do it safely – making sharks more valuable alive, and creating influential shark ambassadors.
POSITIVE MEDIA: We create compelling, perspective-altering videos to promote a more positive image of sharks.
DEVELOPING TOOLS AND CAMPAIGNS: To empower local groups to “take back” their sharks, such as our “REMOVE THE NETS” campaign in South Africa.
