3.3.8—Conservation measures question 1
Figure:Drop in demand for shark fins in Hong Kong and mainland China
- CTI-CFF is an agreement among all six Coral Triangle nations to support food security, sustainable livelihoods and protection of unique ecosystems and marine species.
- Popular approaches include MPAs and LMMAs; MPAs are usually managed by government, while LMMAs are more likely managed by local communities.
- Zones may include no-take zones, tourism zones and restricted traditional fishing. Well-managed MPAs can increase fish size, fish numbers and biodiversity.
- There are over 1000 MPAs in the Coral Triangle, with a target to designate 20% of each main habitat as MPAs.
Identify one way in which conservation efforts may have given rise to the decline in shark fin imports shown in Figure: Drop in demand for shark fins in Hong Kong and mainland China.
