Aaron MacNeil, a biologist at Dalhousie University, and colleagues set out more than 15,000 baited camera traps, and the local snapshots provided by each revealed that species such as grey reef sharks, blacktip reef sharks, and Caribbean reef sharks were often missing from reefs in which they historically lived.”Having dived in hundreds of places around the world, from pristine to degraded, it was no surprise that a fifth of the reefs surveyed had no sharks,” says Sala, who founded the Pristine Seas initiative in 2008 to conserve the world’s oceans. (Read how the world’s coral reefs are dying.)And even in places where reef sharks can still be found, Sala adds, their numbers have been so reduced that they’re no longer playing the same ecological roles as predators. Who was not involved with the research, notes that while the camera trapping approach “is tried and tested at local scales, this study has effectively coordinated a global assessment.””Sharks are easily overfished,” Graham agrees, calling them “a rare occurrence when diving in many nations.”‘You can only sell a dead shark once’Two thirds of the world’s 500 shark species are threatened by overfishing, often to meet demand for shark meat and fins, while nets and longline fishing equipment that unintentionally trap sharks have also severely diminished their numbers.But there is still some hope for sharks.

Laurel Remus, of Clifton Park, said she got her first tree at the fair when her daughter was 3 years old. She’s now 21. Her daughter, Amanda Remus, planted the tree herself and each year Laurel took a photo of her daughter next to the tree. In sunlight the hands show their true glossy blue color and aide in beauty and legibility. One downside is that this is a bronze base case with chrome plating (similar to MANY watches of this era). I kind of like the shininess that the chrome gives vs.

The Red Wings drafted Joe Veleno in the first round, 30th overall, in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. The 6 foot 1, 191 pound center is one of four Red Wings prospects writing a blog for our Taking Flight blog series, which chronicles the ups and downs of each player as they work their way to becoming Red Wings. During the 2018 19 season, Veleno played for the Drummondville Voltigeurs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL).

In the meantime, I am urging all New Yorkers to pay close attention to their local forecasts and to begin preparing their households for this latest round of winter weather. Some locations in New York City and Long Island and areas along the lower Hudson could see up to 12 inches of snow by Monday morning. Coastal areas of Long Island and Queens may see flooding, especially during high tide Monday and in vulnerable, low lying locations..
