🦈 What if sharks behaved like us? Polluted our homes, netted us, hung our skulls on the wall? 🎩 “Caught this one off Sardinia." Absurd? That’s their reality. Sharks aren’t monsters - just victims of bad PR.

🎬 50 years ago Jaws hit theaters. It didn’t demonize sharks - it showed our fear of the unknown, but it also sparked wonder for the ocean and marine life. 🦈 With #Elife_project, we protect sharks & rays in the Med. 🔬 More science, less fear. 🌍 More conservation, more future.
