Debunking a “villain”. What is the lethal threat facing an indispensable species of the Argentine Sea
As is the case globally, most endemic chondrichthyan species are endangered due to poor fishing practices
One third of chondrichthyans, which include sharks, rays, and chimeras, are at risk of extinction, according to the latest report from the Shark Specialist Group of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The study published at the end of 2024 indicates that overfishing is the main threat they face globally. This reality may seem distant, but in Argentina, there are chondrichthyans, and they are in danger.
