Oops. Something’s fishy! Researchers are continuing to study shark populations but many of these transboundary , long-ranging and slow-growing species are at risk. Many are accidentally captured by commercial fishing (this is called by-catch and CWF is helping address this issue). Overfishing can also be a problem, especially since sharks do not reproduce in large numbers.
