Protecting fish
- Caring for fish
Description
Protecting fish involves implementing measures to conserve fish populations and their habitats, ensuring sustainable use and preventing overexploitation. Key actions include regulating fishing practices, establishing protected areas, restoring degraded ecosystems, and enforcing anti-pollution laws. These strategies address threats such as overfishing, habitat destruction, and water pollution, aiming to maintain ecological balance, support food security, and preserve biodiversity for future generations. Effective protection requires coordinated policy, monitoring, and community engagement.
Implementation
The Shark Protection League was set up in the UK in 1994 to campaign for shark protection, particularly against the trade in shark fins for soup.
