Be aware.
That’s ALL I ask.

It’s Shark Awareness Day!
No need to be afraid… This stunning basking shark may have a big mouth but it is also a filter feeder, which means it eats mainly plankton and small fish.
Although we don’t suggest that you go out there and cuddle a shark, we do encourage you to start thinking about them in a new way. As top predators, sharks play an essential role in the marine ecosystem.
We must respect them and ensure they are protected. If you love sharks, spread the word!
