The three angel shark species found in the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea are listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List due to widespread declines. The Angel Shark Project is working in partnership across seven countries to safeguard the future of these species by supporting national governments to deliver legislation to protect angel sharks, working with local communities to identify important areas, and sharing toolkits and recommendations across the Angel Shark Conservation Network.
