Occupation | Founder, Palau Shark Sanctuary |
Location | Koror, PW, Palau |
Introduction | As a visitor to Palau in 1995, I saw hundreds of sharks fins hanging out to dry and vowed to help stop it. I moved to Palau in Jan 1997 and joined the ongoing local battle to save sharks. In 2001, I founded PALAU SHARK SANCTUARY, Palau's first shark conservation organization, with a mission to secure Palau's declaration of its EEZ waters as a shark sanctuary. On September 25, 2009, Palau made that very declaration before the world at the U.N. General Assembly in New York City, thereby creating the worlds first SHARK SANCTUARY. I remain committed to ensuring that sharks have true sanctuary in Palau. www.sharksanctuary.com www.sharksanctuary.blogspot.com Member: www.sharkalliance.com |
