#Repost from my Awesome conservationist friend... @rafafdezjr @download.ins --- “A synomym of health” Imágenes como esta, son muy difíciles de ver. En pocos lugares remotos y protegidos del planeta puedes disfrutar de momentos llenos de tiburones. Si tuviéramos que definir estos momentos con una palabra, mucha gente diría miedo, otros dirían adrenalina, otros belleza… pero sin duda, el sinónimo más acertado de imágenes así, es salud. Un océano sano debería ser así, esto no supone ningún peligro. El verdadero peligro y miedo está en que desaparezcan los tiburones de nuestros mares, como dice la investigadora de tiburones Es justamente la época de estos tiburones sedoso, así que crucemos los dedos para vivir momentos como este. From @Jim_abernethy / As many of you know well, sharks are a huge part of my chosen family! I'm super stoked to see the immense variety of sharks found here! I hope and pray that I'll be fortunate enough to capture a scene somewhere close to the incredible @rafafdezjr amazing shot! His extremely well spoken words are true, however I hope soon that everyone realize that the real fear of sharks, is that one day they will all be gone if we don't work harder to protect them!This massive school is most definitely a “A synomym of great health” of these magnificent islands!

Species profile no. 9: The Silky Shark (Carcharhinus falciformis) • We’re continuing to feature the Carcharhinus Family! The silky shark is another species of requiem shark. They are pelagic, and prefer warm waters in the Atlantic. They normally swim close to the surface, but can dive up to 1,600 feet deep! While they’re most common in the open ocean, they are sometimes found in shallow reef areas. Young silkies often shelter in reef nurseries, and pupping occurs in the Gulf of Mexico. The silky shark’s favorite prey is tuna, which it follows through the ocean. They will also eat other fish and cephalopods. They sometimes herd prey into tight groups, making it easier to rush in and get a mouthful of food! This tactic is known as driving prey into a bait ball, and is often only attributed to species like dolphins. This may be evidence that sharks are smarter than most people think! • Silky sharks are globally listed as Vulnerable. Like many of their close relatives, they have slow reproduction. Females are pregnant for around 12 months before giving birth to litters of around 12 pups. They can have anywhere from 1-16 pups in a litter, with more pups being produced by bigger females. While silky sharks, as well as their close relatives - the oceanic whitetip and blue shark - are the most common pelagic sharks, their slow reproduction makes them vulnerable to overfishing. • The silky shark is caught and killed more than any other shark in the world, besides the blue shark. They are caught as bycatch and killed on purpose - in either situation, they are prized for their meat, fins, oil, and jaws.

Video by @jim_abernethy // Cuba's reef "Gardens of the Queen" is where these beautiful Silky Sharks were filmed! This reef is the most protected area in all the Caribbean and the results from this protection are staggeringly positive! The corals here are very healthy and abundant! The reefs have lots of sharks, groupers and snappers! The mangroves are completely saturated with tiny newborn fish! The seabirds are abundant and healthy! Clearly Marine Protected Areas are the key if we are to protect our oceans in the future! Presently less than 4% of our oceans are protected! We must do better! Silky sharks were named for their smooth hide which is a result of densely packed dermal ventricles! Silky sharks are on the red list of near threatened species by the IUCN. We must end the Shark Fin Trade Globally if we are to have sharks in the future! Please be the voice for sharks! Enjoy but Please Protect! @jim_abernethy @wildlifevoiceinc @sealegacy #ilovesharks #beautiful #savesharks #silkyshark #worthmorealive #marineprotectedarea #ilovesharks #beautiful #magnificent (at Jardines de la Reina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBJey46g6QK/?igshid=dm0ioug5v2fo
