  • Discover the unique adaptations of marine forests, the ecosystems that provide food and shelter for sharks and diverse coastal species.
    --
    Forests don’t usually come to mind as a habitat for sharks. But marine forests provide a home for 35% of the world’s sharks. Mangrove forests in particular function as an essential bridge between land and sea and have evolved various adaptations that protect them and their resident sharks. Luka Seamus Wright explores these unique and vital ecosystems.

    in 2012 i went to bali in indonesia and i went on a tour to a mangrove forest. we saw crabs, mudskippers and the tiny silver fish in the water. that night, the mangrove forest was full of fireflies, it was like sitting in a sea of stars. it was one of my best memories of travel. however when i went back there 5 years later, the mangrove was replaced by a seaside hotel. it was all stone and concrete, no sign of the beautiful wildlife there once was
    i hope we can treasure these precious mangroves before theyre gone...

I work in the Indian Sundarbans (part of the world's largest Delta formed by the River Ganges), studying elasmobranchs and oh boy! There are a lot of shark attacks that still occur (much less than before) in the region, and I have recorded fisher ecological knowledge stating that during high tide, tiger sharks enter the estuaries chasing other big fish. Fascinating!
    I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you. 😊
