OzCast is the official podcast platform of conservation charity, OzFish Unlimited. OzCast features leading scientists, fish ecologists, and industry experts revealing findings, explaining research, and communicating important issues affecting the health of Australian waterways and their surrounding environments. By drawing on their years of experience both in the field and the lab, OzCast provides a look below the surface into the historical, cultural and scientific world that surrounds our rivers, creeks, oceans and lakes.
In this episode of OzCast, marine scientist Dr David Harasti explains why the Greynurse Shark is one of Australia’s most vulnerable ocean species, and how simple changes in the way we fish can have a serious impact on their survival. He also explains the role these sharks play in the ocean’s ecosystem and how fishers, scientists and conservation groups can work together to protect these important predators.
