Science now uses satellites to help sharks not become extinct

Scientists have now decided to use satellite technology to save sharks.

According to a recent announcement by UK experts, current science has decided to take advantage of technology to rescue sharks - a species that is on the verge of extinction.

The specific technology here is satellite . Accordingly, science this time will try "play big" , protect and track sharks from the universe . From here, illegal fishing practices will be saved and destroyed in a radical way.

In fact, whales, sea turtles and some birds have been and are being tracked by satellites. Sharks are the newest member, and this is also a milestone for science to hope that technology will be applied to the conservation of other animals.

Many sharks are about to become extinct

According to IUCN statistics, the species of sharks and stingrays in the world have greatly decreased in the past five decades."The application of technology will be an important step to preserve sharks" - quoted Michael Williamson from London Zoological Association and King's College (UK).

Using satellites, we can analyze species status according to a larger picture. According to Maria Jose Cornax - expert of Oceana conservation organization, this is the future of ocean conservation.

Satellite images allow us to keep a close eye on sharks.

"At present, hunting for illegal fishing cases is very difficult, both for authorities and for animal protection," Cornax said.

"Technology allows us to analyze a large and public data source is the solution. It helps us prevent potential damage".

Why should sharks track from the universe?

Because the current satellite technology of humanity is very developed, plus the synchronization between scientific organizations. Using the current global satellite system allows us to analyze the temperature and salinity factors of seawater - which affect the movement of sharks on the oceans.

This is a very important step. Be aware that sharks are currently at the top of the ocean food chain, and so they are essential for the ecosystem.

It is these data that will help us protect the shark better. For example, authorities can arrange ships in areas where sharks are at high risk of poaching. In addition, satellite images allow us to assess the number of sharks more easily, just like what we did with whales and penguins.

"This technology is needed and is being used on large sharks - creatures that spend a lot of time near the sea," Williamson said.

Combined with electronic tagging technology will help prevent criminals from catching poach more effectively.

Besides satellite data, combining technology with electronic tagging on sharks will greatly support the police. This technology allows to synchronize the movement of sharks in real time from the universe, and helps prevent criminals from poaching more effectively.
