The study involves both conducting a visual census of pelagic species and conducting surveys with guests to assess their experiences with sharks.
  • Supporting the Great Fiji Shark Count – Shark Savers is pleased to be both a sponsor and participant in the Great Fiji Shark Count, the first national count of sharks by recreational divers as citizen scientists. More than 3,000 people joined the April Count, logging over 12,000 shark sightings which will help in conservation planning and studying patterns of marine ecosystem health. The data that is collected during the Shark Count will help to map shark distribution and abundance in Fiji.
