Take part in the Shark Trust’s community science project and to help gather vital information about global shark distribution. During the last week in July 2022 they want buddy pairs, dive centres, clubs and boats to record as many shark, ray and skate sightings around the world as possible. 

Over time, each Snapshot will build a clearer picture for shark scientists and conservationists. A picture of species distribution around the world and population changes. One third of sharks and rays are threatened from destructive fishing, climate change and habitat destruction. The data you collect will help scientists put effective conservation plans in place to help species.

If you can grab a photo then great – but it is not necessary for you to be included in this huge shark data collecting event.
