Sharks are in desperate need of journalists who understand the peril they are facing and the importance of their survival to our ocean's ecosystems. The more sharks are understood and respected, the more likely policies can be put into place to protect them from vanishing - a devastation with major environmental consequences.

This media guide, compiled by a variety of shark conservation organizations and experts and produced by the foundation, provides the highlights of facts, figures, terminology, experts, and web resources as reference for journalists writing about the world of sharks.
