It's #MakoMonday! Great time to catch up on the big mako 🦈 conservation news from recent weeks. #SharkLeague blog re: new 🇵🇹 ban summarizes and links to other key developments. Time for 🇺🇸 & 🇲🇦 to get on board with science-based limits #MakeTime4Makos https://t.co/wocyocqBWG
Wow. There's been a lot of #MAKO 🦈 news lately! #SharkLeague breaks it down in a new blog, focused on 🇵🇹 ban but loaded with links to more info on the science, 🇪🇸 & 🇨🇦 protections, #ICCAT / @CITES processes & next steps #MakeTime4Makos #MakeOrBreak4Makos https://t.co/wocyocqBWG
Reason for hope: Portugal has banned landings of endangered N. Atlantic shortfin mako sharks from high seas (where most are caught): https://t.co/z7VpWSeOrb This action + similar new ban by Spain could turn tide. 🇵🇹 & 🇪🇸 rank 3rd & 1st respectively for take from this population

Good news: The oceanic whitetip shark is being added to @BonnConvention App. I, giving 130 Parties a new binding obligation to protect the species. Caution: Parties' record for doing so re: other listed sharks is not great. We must #HoldThemToIt https://t.co/4qQcRUEwJe #CMSCOP13
